"Van Jaarsveld is an exciting new talent in South African cricket and we are proud to be associated with him," says David Smith, MD of Ariva. "Our agreement includes sponsoring him a branded vehicle and branding his cricket bat.
"As a new market entrant ourselves, having launched into South Africa in January last year, the company is clearly demonstrating its own talent within the motoring segment. This partnership is great synergy for our brand and we are delighted to be supporting young talent, who like ourselves is a professional and dedicated to achieving success. We believe that this young cricketer will continue to flourish in his career as well as do the brand proud."
According to van Jaarsveld, "I am pleased to be associated with the brand and look forward to a fruitful partnership. With this sponsorship I am guaranteed reliable transport to and from games with plenty room for my kit, and I look forward to driving my new Hyundai."
