Sponsorship boost for Kia Magic

Media Release April 14, 2014

Kia Magic has received a significant boost with the recent addition of VANTAGE Aluminium Joinery to its stable of sponsors for the ANZ Championship netball competition.

The Waikato Bay of Plenty Zone is delighted to welcome back old friend APL (Architectural Profiles Ltd), New Zealand’s leading window systems supplier and parent company of VANTAGE which is New Zealand’s largest selling brand of aluminium joinery.

APL has previously been strong supporters of Magic and the VANTAGE brand will appear on the side of the team’s playing dress for the rest of this season and for 2015.

``It is fantastic to have a company like APL back on board,’’ Waikato Bay of Plenty Zone CEO Tim Hamilton said.

``We look forward to working with them in positioning the VANTAGE brand and growing public awareness in the months ahead.’’

With its head office based alongside Magic in Hamilton, APL is a perfect fit for both parties.

"This is a great opportunity for us and we are very excited about this new sponsorship arrangement," APL Chief Executive, Craig Vincent said.

"Kia Magic are a strong force for women's sport in the region and their performance record on the court speaks for itself. We have a proud record of supporting proven performers which is why our leading VANTAGE brand and the Kia Magic make such a great partnership. We are excited about the rest of the current season and also look forward to a mutually rewarding 2015."
