Moana Pasifika is pleased to welcome Ford New Zealand back on their va’a as the Official Automotive Partner.
The new partnership will run through until at least the end of the 2027 DHL Super Rugby season, highlighting Ford’s commitment to rugby and high performance sport.
Moana Pasifika CEO Debbie Sorenson (ONZM) celebrated the news by saying: “We are delighted that Ford New Zealand has chosen to support the Moana Pasifika movement and the team are excited to have access to the amazing vehicles which will support their work on the field and in the community.”
As the proud vehicle sponsor of Moana Pasifika, Ford’s logo will feature prominently on the sleeve of the playing jersey, beginning with the much-anticipated 2025 DHL Super Rugby season which begins next month.
Moana Pasifika Head Coach Fa’alogo Tana Umaga says: “It’s awesome to be involved with Ford once again. On a personal note I’ve had a long relationship with Ford through my playing career as well as my coaching career in South Auckland.”
“It’s great to have the backing of a strong and innovative brand that is committed to rugby and helping Moana Pasifika on our journey.”
Ford New Zealand Managing Director Annaliese Atina added: “In addition to Ford having a rich history of supporting rugby and being the driving force behind sport in New Zealand, we’re also big fans. We’re excited to be able to expand our relationship and support of Moana Pasifika and we are looking forward to the upcoming season.”
