Winger Subaru is set to provide the engines to drive the Chiefs forward this season, with its Hamilton dealership becoming the club’s official vehicle supplier.
The three-year deal kicks off this month and will see the Chiefs supplied with 12 of Subaru’s most popular model – the Outback SUV.
As Hamilton is the home to the Chiefs Rugby Club, one of the five New Zealand franchises in the Investec Super Rugby competition, the local partnership is a natural fit for Winger Subaru Hamilton.
A proud Chiefs supporter, Winger Subaru Hamilton Dealer Principal Paul Burborough says the dealership is delighted to be involved with this high-profile rugby club.
“All of us here at Winger Subaru Hamilton are extremely passionate Gallagher Chiefs supporters and the team are very excited to be supplying their club with Subaru Outbacks. Subaru is a premium brand - ideal for Kiwi lifestyles - which we have become well known for. We are confident the Chiefs will enjoy driving the spacious, safe and fantastic on-and-off road All-Wheel Drive Outbacks.”
On behalf of the Chiefs board; staff and players; members and fans, we thank the team at Winger Subaru for their commitment and support to the club and to the Gallagher Chiefs,” adds Sean Austin, Chiefs Rugby Club general manager commercial.
Winger Subaru owner Wayne Leach says it is a pleasure to be able to harness the network’s success to help drive forward organisations like the Chiefs.
“Our founding dealership, Winger Hamilton is located in the city, where the club and team is based. We are excited about the partnership and being able to support the Gallagher Chiefs both from the side-lines and as the official vehicle supplier for the season ahead.”
