As a celebration of the new Bing Lee sponsorship of the Sydney Swans the first 100 new members, or members who renew, will pick up a $50 gift card to shop at any of the 36 Bing Lee stores.
Bing Lee today announced they will continue their support of NSW sport by becoming a proud premier partner of Sydney AFL team, the Sydney Swans for the next three years.
Bing Lee Chief Executive Officer Lionel Lee says the sponsorship with the Sydney Swans is driven by the team’s renowned strong family supporter-base and universal appeal across Sydney.
“The partnership fits perfectly with Bing Lee's family values and the desire to succeed. The sponsorship offers a platform for Bing Lee to continue working with progressive sporting organisations and their members; we are proud to be involved with one of Sydney’s leading sporting teams.”
“For our part, we’re absolutely delighted to partner with Bing Lee and really appreciate their support. We look forward to working with them to grow and enhance what is a very successful business” said Swans Chief Executive Myles Baron-Hay.
“Bing Lee and ourselves have much in common – we’re both very Sydney and both share a focus on family. Bing Lee is obviously a family business whose principal clients are families. The Swans are a family-friendly club, welcoming both men and women, the young and the old where ever you live.
“We welcome Bing Lee to the red and white family!”
This new relationship adds to Bing Lee’s support of Sydney centric properties. In 2007 Bing Lee began their support of Taronga Zoo by sponsoring the endangered Francois Langur monkeys and, later in the year were announced as the major sponsor of Sydney Football Club.
The three-year deal will allow Bing Lee and the Sydney Swans to develop a strong and co-operative sponsorship, which follows the Bing Lee tradition of partnering with successful iconic brands.
"Bing Lee has become one of NSW’s largest electrical retailers with a strong brand presence and we are excited to form this alliance with the Sydney Swans who are an integral part of the Sydney landscape,” Lee concluded.
* The Bing Lee $50 gift card voucher is available to the first 100 people who renew their membership for 2008 or sign up as a new member from Tuesday 8 April.
** This offer is available for Sydney based memberships only.
Bing Lee have 36 stores across NSW and the ACT, including regional stores across the north and south coast. For details of your nearest Bing Lee store visit www.binglee.com.au
