A significant beginning for the Swire Shipping Fijian Drua as Vinod Patel and Home & Living renewed and extended their partnership for the Club for the next three years.

Fijian Drua CEO Mark Evans thanked both companies for their continued support since year one, saying the extended partnership is a testament to their commitment to what all Fijians love, the Fijian Drua team.

Evans says the signing of the partnership signifies the company's growth and the strengthening of the relationship between the two companies and the Drua team.

Home & Living CEO Jatin Patel says it has been simply sensational to watch the Fijian Drua play, especially as the new boys on the block finished in the top eight in the last two seasons, creating many memorable moments during the matches.

He adds through their support, Vinod Patel will be the official sponsor and supplier of hardware to the Fijian Drua.

Patel further states that every Fijian Drua member, from players to staff, will receive a pre-determined discount at all Vinod Patel and Home & Living stores at any time.

Under Home & Living, the Player of the Match award will be named the Home Basics Player of the Match, with each winner receiving a $750 Home Basics Home & Living shopping voucher.

He also urges all Drua supporters to turn out in numbers and cheer for the Fijian Drua tomorrow as they host the Brumbies at 3.35pm at HFC Bank Stadium in Suva.

In other matches, the Crusaders will meet the Hurricanes at 6.05 tonight, the Waratahs will take on the Highlanders at 8.35 tonight, the Blues will face the Chiefs at 6.05pm tomorrow, and the Force will play Moana Pasifika at 8.35pm tomorrow.
