GENERAL: SKT: SKY AND VODAFONE RENEW RESALE & DISTRIBUTION PARTNERSHIP
SKY AND VODAFONE RENEW THEIR PARTNERSHIP WITH A NEW FIVE YEAR AGREEMENT.
SKY and Vodafone have today renewed their resale and distribution partnership
in a new agreement which brings together the previously separate arrangements
for Vodafone and TelstraClear. The new agreement provides for the continued
resale of SKY by Vodafone and the distribution of SKY to New Zealand homes
via Vodafone's own SuperNet(TM) network.
SKY's previous agreement with Vodafone reached the end of its initial term in
November 2011 and the parties have been working towards a new deal since
January 2011, during which time Vodafone acquired TelstraClear.
John Fellet, SKY Chief Executive said,
"Our partnership with Vodafone has been a long and positive one. We've worked
together on mobile television and Vodafone's resale of SKY, bundled with
their broadband products. This new deal will give Kiwi consumers some
fantastic opportunities. I'm really looking forward to our companies working
together to deliver some terrific entertainment opportunities to New Zealand
homes".
Vodafone Chief Executive Russell Stanners said he is very pleased to be
renewing the relationship with SKY.
"This is great news for our customers who are enjoying SKY services through
Vodafone today and provides Vodafone with the platform to innovate going
forward."
