Philadelphia, PA — Philadelphia Lone Star FC is proud to announce Emoja Spiced Beef Jerky as the club’s Official Front-of-Jersey Partner for the 2026 season.

Founded in East Lansdowne, Pennsylvania in 2022, Emoja Spiced Beef Jerky is an African-owned company known for its African-inspired beef jerky that is high in protein, bold in flavor, and rooted in cultural tradition. Since its founding, the company has grown throughout the greater Philadelphia region, offering a healthy, protein-rich snack that celebrates heritage and taste.

The partnership includes front-of-jersey placement for the club’s First Team competing in USL League Two and the U23 side competing in UPSL Division 1.

“We are elated to partner with Philadelphia Lone Star for the upcoming season,” said Georgia M. Torh, Founder & CEO of Emoja Spiced Beef Jerky. “As an African-owned business rooted in culture and community, aligning with a club that reflects similar values is incredibly meaningful and comes full circle for us. We are honored and proud to support the players and look forward to fueling the Stars throughout the season.”

Beyond jersey placement, the partnership represents a shared commitment to representation, entrepreneurship, and regional community development. As Philadelphia Lone Star FC continues to compete across high-level platforms while representing Southwest Philadelphia and its diverse communities, collaboration with culturally aligned businesses strengthens the club’s foundation both on and off the field.

By bringing together competitive soccer and African-inspired enterprise, the partnership highlights the growing impact of minority-owned businesses investing in sport across the Philadelphia area.

“This partnership reflects shared values and continued growth,” said Paul Konneh, President & CEO of Philadelphia Lone Star FC. “While Emoja was founded in East Lansdowne, the cultural connection and regional ties align closely with the communities we represent. We are proud to feature Emoja on the front of our First Team USL League Two and U23 UPSL Division 1 kits this season.”

Emoja branding will be featured prominently throughout the 2026 campaign across matchdays and digital platforms.
