Wests Tigers has announced their most lucrative sponsorship deal in securing one of the largest property developers in Australia in Meriton Apartments as the Major Sponsor for the 2011 and 2012 seasons.
Meriton Apartments have been building quality brand new luxury apartments for over 45 years throughout Sydney and South East Queensland. Meriton is owned by one of Australia’s most successful and astute businessmen in Harry Triguboff.
The deal marks a significant return to rugby league at an elite level for Meriton Apartments who were the inaugural major sponsor of the Wests Tigers in season 2000.
Wests Tigers CEO Stephen Humphreys said it was great to have a company of the calibre of Meriton involved again with the Club.
“In such a competitive environment, we feel privileged that Meriton has assessed Wests Tigers as one of the leading sporting brands in Australia,’’ Humphreys said.
“Harry is renowned for backing winners. His business success is testament to this and we are confident that this trend will continue over the coming seasons.”
Meriton CEO Harry Triguboff said he was proud to be associated with such a strong and determined team with a wonderful history and passionate supporters.
“In the past few years we have looked with pride at the Wests Tigers U20s team wearing the Meriton logo and it seems only right as some of these players move into the NRL team for us to move up with them,’’ Triguboff said.
“I personally cannot wait to watch the boys run out on to field in 2011 wearing the great new Wests Tigers strip and the Meriton ‘M’. I am sure this will prove to be a most fruitful partnership."
