Team Vitality signs FYZIO deal; Gilbert enters esports

Team Vitality signed a multi-year partnership with FYZIO, backed by Laboratoires Gilbert; FYZIO will supply sports nutrition and energy drinks to Vitality’s competitive rosters.

Team Vitality has agreed a multi-year partnership with FYZIO, a sports nutrition and hydration brand backed by French pharmaceutical group Laboratoires Gilbert. FYZIO will serve as the club’s official sports nutrition and energy drinks supplier and provide medical and wellness support to the organization’s performance program.

FYZIO branding will appear on the left sleeve of Team Vitality jerseys across the club’s Counter-Strike 2, VALORANT and Rocket League rosters, as well as its League of Legends teams in the LEC, LFL and the Rising Bees academy. The partnership also includes asset support for competitors in Teamfight Tactics, Tekken and Trackmania.

Laboratoires Gilbert will integrate clinical and wellness expertise into Team Vitality’s performance setup. The company plans to supply specialized nutrition products for player preparation and recovery as part of the agreement.

Cédric Batteur, Chairman and CEO of Laboratoires Gilbert, stated, “For more than 120 years, Laboratoires Gilbert has been developing solutions dedicated to health and well-being. With FYZIO, we are bringing this expertise to a new ambition: helping everyone achieve their goals through a modern, accessible, and responsible approach to sports nutrition.” Vas Roberts, Co-CEO of Team Vitality, noted, “By integrating specialized nutrition products into our teams’ routines, we are further strengthening our commitment to high-performance excellence.”

FYZIO is scheduled for a commercial launch in September 2026. The brand’s product development focuses on performance markers such as cognitive sharpness, hydration, stress management and sleep regulation. The company says formulations will be produced in France using vegan, traceable ingredients.

Team Vitality’s recent competitive results, including a BLAST Rivals Spring 2026 title and momentum from ESL Grand Slam events, were cited by Laboratoires Gilbert as factors for choosing the club as a launch partner. Earlier this year, Team Vitality also signed a partnership with French retailer E.Leclerc that included activations focused on nutrition and wellness.

Financial terms of the deal and the precise timeline for integrating Laboratoires Gilbert staff and products into Team Vitality programs were not disclosed.
