The owners of a recently-launched estate agency in North Wales have become major shareholders in a football club.

Jody and Carly Johnson (main picture), founders of Blue Turtle Property and insulation and boiler company of the Blue Turtle Group, are now in charge at Colwyn Bay FC.

They bought the shares owned by the backers of a construction company, the North Wales Pioneer reports.

One-stop

The couple, who worked together for Purplebricks, were in the news recently after launching a ‘one-stop’ estate agency in Rhos-on-Sea, North Wales.

Blue Turtle Property is to offer a wide range of different services including property management, lettings and sales, but also some of the parent company’s ‘clean tech’ boilers and other heating products

Rich history

They became involved with the JD Cymru Premier league-bound club in recent months. Both are already directors of the club, and its ground is now known as The Blue Turtle Arena.

Carly said: “This club has a rich history, a passionate fan base, and untapped potential and we are honoured to be part of its future.

“Football is more than a game, it’s about community, ambition, and legacy.

This is a long-term commitment, and we’re here to grow together.”

“Our vision is to build on the club’s proud traditions while driving it forward with investment, innovation, and integrity,” she said.

“This is a long-term commitment, and we’re here to grow together. To the fans, your loyalty is the heartbeat of this club. We will work hard every day to earn your trust and deliver the success you deserve. Let’s get to work.”
