Sharks contract renewals pick up steam
11 Dec 17 11:22 by Rob Otto (robdylan) | 98 Comments

Competition between large organizations battling for the same market segment can often have beneficial effects for consumers; if say, they force one another to lower prices or offer more benefits in order to attract business from one another. Just occasionally, though, there’s a beneficial effect for charity too and that’s exactly what’s happened this year, with Sharks headline sponsor Cell C opting to match Super Rugby tournament sponsor Vodacom Rand for Rand.
