'''100% Organic Antifreeze''' is a sponsor in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'', ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]''.

'''Bob-omb Plugs''' are a type of [[wikipedia:Spark plug|plug]] which appears as a sponsor in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'', ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]''. The company produces plugs which resemble [[Bob-omb]]s, but replace the fuse with the plug pin itself. Although the official logo is not seen within any of the courses, some graffiti can be seen in [[Super Bell Subway]] which shows what is presumably a stylised version of the logo. This graffiti depicts it with a plug on the right hand side, the word "Bob-omb" in all capitals and blue on the left with the word plugs, also stylized in all capitals, below the plug on the right in pink. A logo for the company appears in ''Mario Kart Tour'', which features 2D artwork of a Bob-omb with a fuse plug with a spark coming from it and a yellow key and feet above an oval which is white at the top and contains the word "Bob-omb"  in a red all-capital font with a black outline and black at the bottom with "Plugs" in an all-capital yellow font. The whole logo is surrounded by a  white outline and has a black background.

'''Boomerang Bros. International Airlines''' (often abbreviated to '''BBIA''') is an airline that appears as a sponsor in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'', ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', and makes a cameo appearance in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''.

The logo consists of the name or initials in a navy blue sans-serif font, with the first "I" in "International" being replaced with a red-striped blue [[Boomerang]]. A different logo has the abbreviation "BBIA" on the left with a red shape on the left hand side, while another different logo is simply the abbreviation on a gray background. Another version has all of the text and the main part of the boomerang in white with a red stripe on a dark blue background with diagonal white stripes on either side.

[[File:MK8-BowserOil4.png|thumb|250px|right|The Bowser Oil logo from ''Mario Kart 8'']]

'''Bowser Oil''' is a sponsor that appears in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'', ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' and makes a cameo in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'' that presumably supplies oil for the [[Kart]]s, [[Bike]]s and [[ATV]]s used in the game, run by [[Bowser]]. The logo of the company is the name written in a simple, black font, with the center of the "O" in "Oil" being replaced with a Bowser symbol. It appears on a yellow background, occasionally with a black and white checkered line underneath. A variant of this logo inverts the colors, with another one placing the word "Bowser" above the word "Oil".

[[File:MK8-BulletBillSpeedTrial.png|thumb|250px|right|A Bullet Bill Speed Trial poster from ''Mario Kart 8'']]

'''Bullet Bill Speed Trial''' is a sponsor that appears in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'', ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit]]'', which makes a cameo appearance in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'' and some of the promotional material for [[Nintendo]]'s collaboration with Kansai International Airport. The company presumably either runs or times the Time Trials that can be played in the games, and has some relation to [[Bullet Bill]]s. The logo of the company consists of the company's name written in a simple slanted beige-colored font on a red background, below a simplified image of a Bullet Bill on a navy blue background, in the same beige color. These rectangles are separated by a beige line. However, on the trackside banner variant, all of the writing and imagery appears in the blue rectangle, with just a thin red one underneath. The sticker variant retains the design from the trackside banners, but without the beige dividing line, and a smaller red line at the bottom. There are another two logo variants which appear on the [[Sport Bike]]'s blue varnish, one which has "Bullet Bill" on the top and "Speed Trial" below in yellow, slanting to the let with another yellow line above it and a blue background. The other one is closer in design to the trackside banner variant, but now has yellow lines and writing, and removes the Bullet Bill and red strip beneath it. It is advertised by means of trackside banners, signs, cans, stickers, posters, patches, appears on a varnish and is also referenced on a map.

==Galaxy Air==

[[File:MK8-GXA7.png|thumb|250px|right|The Galaxy Air logo]]

'''Galaxy Air''' (often abbreviated to '''GXA''') is an airline that appears as a sponsor in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'', ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', and makes a cameo appearance in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''. It runs flights to some of the courses from the game, so presumably transports the racers to these locations for the races. It is presumably named after [[Galaxy|Galaxies]] from ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', or possibly even the games themselves. The logo consists of a simplified image of a yellow [[Luma]] alongside three stripes, two being dark blue and the other being turquoise, somewhat resembling a comet tail. Beneath this is the company name in a simple dark blue font. There are many variations of the logo however. One variation puts the stripes behind the Luma and gives it an outline, and "Galaxy Air" appears on the right hand side instead. This variant has many different color schemes. The other main variant shortens the stripes and adds GXA above Galaxy Air on the right hand side, and also comes in two variations. Another version of this logo instead places the text on the left of the logo and extends the three stripes coming from the Luma. Another variation of the logo places the Luma on the left and the abbreviation over the full name on the right, while another simply has just the text in that arrangement. Another variant of this version of the logo has an orange background and white text, as well as removing the outline from the Luma and changing its eyes to orange, and the colors of the stripes to turquoise instead of dark blue and white instead of the original turquoise.

As well as the variations, Galaxy Air also advertises using posters which illustrate specific destinations. One of these is for [[Dry Dry Desert (GCN)|Dry Dry Desert]], and features an image of <small>GCN</small> Dry Dry Desert as the background with the Galaxy Air logo in the top left corner. In front of this is a green dune shape which says "Mysterious Sands." and "Dry Dry Desert" on it, and features [[Toad]]'s ''[[Mario Party 8]]'' artwork on it. There is also a rectangular version of it which shows a smaller section of the course and places Toad above the dune. Another one is for [[Sweet Sweet Canyon]] and is fairly similar in layout, but now has a pink ribbon with a magenta and white trim at the bottom instead of dunes. This now reads "The Sweetest Memories!" and "Sweet Sweet Canyon" instead, and features [[Princess Peach]]'s ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'' artwork behind the ribbon instead, whereas Toad is in front. The rectangular variant has the same changes as the Dry Dry Desert one. The other poster is for [[Water Park]], and is completely different from the other two. It has the Galaxy Air logo in the top right hand corner in a yellow trapezium, which also says "Welcome to Water Park", with the "Welcome to" in orange and the rest in red. below this is an orange stripe which has "New attraction!" written on it in yellow, accompanied by another orange stripe at the bottom. In between these stripes is an image of Water Park, specifically focussed on the Sub Coaster ride, which is most likely the new attraction, and the ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' artwork of [[Koopa Troopa]].
