Whisky giant Whyte and Mackay has announced two historic sponsorship agreements backing the Tartan Army.
In a three-year deal the company will partner the Scottish Football Association as the first official sponsors of the Scotland Supporters Club.
It will also become the first official backers of the Association of Tartan Army clubs.
Scotland manager Walter Smith said: "I think a sponsorship of the supporters rather than the team is a great and a very noble idea.
"Scotland fans are known for their support and I will always remember entering the San Siro and seeing them at the far end.
"That was fantastic and I will never forget that. The support of the Tartan Army is second to none and I thoroughly support this sponsorship."
