SA Rugby has appointed two of South Africa's largest and most successful sports marketing and hospitality groups as the official corporate hospitality supplier for the British and Irish Lions 2009 tour to South Africa.
CIRCA Hospitality (a SAIL Group company) and Warwick Hospitality & Events (a Primedia Group company) have joined hands in an initiative to provide corporate clients from here and overseas with the very best of South African hospitality.
“The partnership companies hold a significant combined market share within the domestic Hospitality industry,” said Dudley Horn, managing executive of Warwick Hospitality & Events. “Our two companies have worked well together over the years to combine our skills on various projects and events and to offer reciprocal rights at various stadia and events. It is again that we join, to work together as the Hospitality Partner for the British and Irish Lions Tour of South Africa 2009.”
Jaco Beukes, chief operating officer of CIRCA said: “We are pleased to be awarded the opportunity to provide all the hospitality requirements for such a prestigious, international event. Our scope of services includes the management of the entire corporate hospitality programme as well as its marketing and sales. In addition, the entire procurement and implementation of additional hospitality infrastructure, as well as the management of the various hospitality areas will be done by the joint venture.”
The joint venture companies are local industry leaders in the provision of: hospitality sales; infrastructure; hospitality fulfilment; subcontractor management and control standards. They also have the ability to leverage the relationships with all the stadium management, suite holders, stadium advertisers and sponsors. The partners currently hold facilities (suites/sky boxes) and commercial rights at all major stadia in South Africa.
Hospitality packages have been designed for the corporate and SME sector and facilities will include viewing suites and stylish marquees with reserved stadium seating.
Hospitality packages are now available and offer a great opportunity to entertain guests at what will be the hottest tickets in the 2009 South African sports year.
