Tuatahi First Fibre is partnering with the Chiefs Rugby Club as a major sponsor of the Gallagher Chiefs through till 2026. Tuatahi First Fibre is the official fibre broadband infrastructure network of the Chiefs Rugby Club and our logo is featured on the front of the 2024/25 Gallagher Chiefs Training Jersey.
As a local company working at the heart of New Zealand communities, we’re excited to support the Gallagher Chiefs as a major sponsor. There are some close synergies between our brands, so our partnership makes perfect sense.
The Chiefs and Tuatahi First Fibre share a commitment to our region, an alignment of values, and an aspiration to uplift and inspire our communities to be connected.
We're proud to be embracing 'tuatahi,' the te reo Māori word for 'first,' in our name to celebrate our position as a local company working at the heart of New Zealand communities. Like the Chiefs, we place importance on high performance, speed and coming first.
At Tuatahi First Fibre, we deliver fast, reliable fibre broadband access across large parts of the North Island – and now we’re helping light up Magic’s season too. We’re all about strong connections, something Magic know a thing or two about on court.
We’re proud to be on board with AVIS Magic and can’t wait to see what we can achieve together this season.
