Vinod Patel and Home & Living have renewed their partnership with the Swire Shipping Fijian Drua for another three years.
Vinod Patel will be the official sponsors and suppliers of hardware to the Fijian Drua while Home & Living with Home Basics is the number 1 choice for home furnishing.
There is also a predetermined discount for every Fijian Drua member, from players to staff, at all Vinod Patel and Home & Living stores at any time.
Fijian Drua CEO Mark Evans thanked the two companies and said the extension of their partnership is a testament to their commitment for the things that all Fijians love, one of which is Fijian Drua.
“As partners, we are buoyed by their enthusiasm and the efforts both brands take to activate and leverage their sponsorship.”

Home & Living CEO Jatin Patel said rugby has always been their number one sport and nothing brings people together like watching our boys play in top competition rugby.
“It is simply sensational to watch the Fijian Drua play, the Fijian flair flying in the Super Rugby competition.”
