In case it wasn’t already clear just how much of a role Dell Loy Hansen has played in the businesses investing in Real Salt Lake, I thought I might do some research.
See, Brian Dunseth made a great point on the broadcast on Sunday about ‘vertical integration’ and how Hansen’s desire for it has permeated everything Real Salt Lake has done. Nearly half of the corporate partners listed on Real Salt Lake’s website are owned by Dell Loy Hansen, a few are regular partners with Hansen’s companies, and a handful are national brands who likely have league-wide deals.
