In a move set to reshape the landscape of rugby sponsorship, New Zealand Rugby (NZR)<\/a> and Gallagher Insurance<\/a> have announced a multi-year partnership, bringing together two globally recognized brands with a shared commitment to integrity, excellence, and community impact.<\/p>\n

A Partnership Built on Shared Values<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The partnership was unveiled at a special launch event at the All Blacks Experience<\/a> in Auckland, signaling Gallagher\u2019s new role as the Official Insurance Broker of NZR. As part of the agreement, the Gallagher<\/a> brand will feature prominently on the training and match day shorts of all NZR\u2019s national teams, including the All Blacks<\/a>, Black Ferns<\/a>, M\u0101ori All Blacks<\/a>, and Sevens teams<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201c<\/strong>This is a partnership that reflects the scale, ambition and passion for rugby both our organisations have,\u201d<\/strong> said<\/a> Mark Robinson, CEO of New Zealand Rugby.<\/strong> \u201c<\/strong>We couldn’t be more excited to align with Gallagher Insurance, who already have deep expertise in elite sport, along with a key business focus in New Zealand and globally. This partnership helps solidify where we’re heading, not just with our teams on field, but as a sporting brand off the field too.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Gallagher\u2019s Global Sports Strategy Meets Kiwi Rugby Excellence<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Gallagher Insurance, a leader in insurance brokerage, risk management, and consulting, sees this partnership as a natural extension of its global sports strategy. The collaboration aims to connect with elite organizations shaping the future of high-performance competition, while also deepening Gallagher\u2019s roots in New Zealand.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201c<\/strong>At Gallagher, we believe in the power of sport to build stronger communities and foster leadership on and off the field,\u201d<\/strong> said<\/a> Christopher Mead, Chief Marketing Officer, Gallagher Insurance.<\/strong> \u201c<\/strong>Partnering with New Zealand Rugby\u2014an institution that stands for integrity, respect, and excellence\u2014aligns perfectly with our values. We are proud to stand with the All Blacks, the Black Ferns, and all NZR teams as they inspire fans and unite communities around the world.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

A Commitment to Community and Local Impact<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Gallagher\u2019s presence in New Zealand is not new. The company has served clients in Aotearoa for over a decade, with its merger partner\u2019s roots stretching back nearly 50 years. This partnership reflects a deepened commitment to the communities and businesses that call New Zealand home.<\/p>\n

Through the new agreement, Gallagher will work alongside NZR to deliver meaningful local impact and create unforgettable matchday experiences for fans and clients worldwide. Gallagher Insurance will also become a regional partner of multiple All Blacks Clinics annually and, from 2026, the jersey partner for New Zealand referees across all domestic competitions, including DHL Super Rugby Pacific<\/a>, Sky Super Rugby Aupiki, and Bunnings Warehouse Provincial Rugby<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Ambassadors Leading the Charge<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Adding star power to the partnership, Gallagher Insurance has signed Beauden Barrett<\/a> as a global ambassador. Barrett will support Gallagher\u2019s community commitments both in New Zealand and internationally. The company also continues its ambassador relationship with Kendra Cocksedge, a legendary figure in women\u2019s rugby and the Black Ferns.<\/p>\n

A Global Stage Awaits<\/strong><\/h3>\n

With Gallagher headquartered in Rolling Meadows, USA, the partnership will soon take center stage during the All Blacks v Ireland test in November, showcasing the collaboration to audiences in the US and UK during the upcoming Northern Tour.<\/p>\n

As rugby continues to grow its global footprint, this partnership between NZR and Gallagher Insurance stands as a testament to the power of shared values, community focus, and the enduring appeal of the game. The future looks bright for both organizations and for rugby fans around the world.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"In a move set to reshape the landscape of rugby sponsorship, New
