agents tasked with powering the project – S Chiware Sports Consultancy – tied a deal with a Chinese company in Hangzhou.
Dynamos will turn 50 years in 2013 but the Harare giants, in partnership with S Chiware Sports Consultancy – a sports management and development consultancy service – have already started an ambitious awareness campaign to reach out to the club’s stakeholders in and out of Zimbabwe.
The Harare giants have also revealed that they will be appointing some of the club’s former players and legends as ambassadors.
Warriors and Al-Hilal striker Edward Sadomba, who is based in Sudan and former Dynamos captain Memory Mucherahowa, now staying in England, have already been named as Golden Jubilee ambassadors.
S Chiware consultancy boss, Shepherd Chiware, this week travelled to China where he also sealed a memorandum of partnership with Shanghai Yuan Investment Group Co Ltd.
Chiware said the deal would usher in a strong international strategic sporting business alliance that will benefit the sporting industry in the two countries.
“Two Zimbabwean sports companies, S Chiware Sports Consultancy – a sports management and development consultancy service – and Betta Ball Sports – suppliers and distributors of sports goods and sportswear – have established a strong international and bilateral sports business alliance that will enhance the existing economic co-operation between China and Zimbabwe.
“The deal to forge the alliance was sealed at Shanghai Yuan Investment Group Co Ltd office’s in Hangzhou. S Chiware Sports Consultancy and Betta Ball Sports are on a 10-day visit to China that will see the company representatives visiting Guangzhou and Hangzhou provinces to explore opportunities for international sports business exchange and global business networking,” Chiware said.
Chiware said the three companies also signed a two and half-year deal on the sidelines of their memorandum of partnership agreement for various promotional products, regalia, and items for the Golden Jubilee countdown and commemoration promotion.
The batch of the products will arrive in Zimbabwe at end of July 2011.
“For us in Zimbabwe, the sporting links to China could be of crucial strategic and economic importance and could provide the potential base and platform for the growth of Zimbabwe sport industry. And in the long run it could also provide a land bridge for Zimbabwean sporting industry to the rest of the world,” said Chiware.
The Chinese also expressed their happiness at tying up deals with Zimbabwean companies.
“We are very keen to boost existing relations between our two countries and we feel highly honoured to engage in this business partnership with S Chiware Sports and Betta Ball Sports from Zimbabwe. We will display an effective and balanced approach that will further create downstream opportunities. We share the advantage of being mutually complimentary to each other and we are so delighted at this new partnership with African counterparts that should witness the further development of the right kind of relationship downstream to the grassroots,” said David An – a representative of Shanghai Yuan Investment Co Ltd.
In China, Chiware is in the company of Lizah Nyemba, a representative of Betta Ball Sports. Nyemba said they were keen to forge tools of co-operation with the Chinese sports companies.
“We are very interested in forming a truly functioning coalition of interest with Shanghai Yuan Investment Co Ltd,” said Nyemba.
