Kaizer Chiefs Football Club would like to congratulate Vodacom for launching a new logo in April. The new branding sees the blue ‘globe’ emblem being replaced by a red ‘speech mark’ symbol in what is the biggest brand change in South African telecoms history.

Vodacom, South Africa’s leading network has been a premier sponsor for Kaizer Chiefs since 1999. The two brands continue to enjoy a good relationship.

Marketing Director, Jessica Motaung congratulated the giant cellular company, “On behalf of the Club I would like to congratulate Vodacom whom we have enjoyed a fantastic relationship with for more than a decade. The relationship between the two gigantic brands continues to grow in leaps and bounds. I have no doubt that the new logo will be as popular as the previous one,” she said.

Kaizer Chiefs will retain the old Vodacom logo and will at the start of next season adopt the new logo. The Glamour Boys could not use the new logo on their jerseys due to the fact that their technical sponsors had already produced and delivered all the Club’s kit requirements for the 2010/2011 season.
