Thailand’s Sailing Scene Boosted By Investment From Leading Pizza Franchise
The sailing competition, featuring the best international and homegrown talents, will run from July 11 to 21 at the Royal Varuna Yacht Club (RVYC) in Pattaya, Thailand
Mr. John Heinecke, Chief Operating Officer of The Minor Food Group PCL, said, “We are pleased to support the Optimist World Championship 2017 as we strongly believe that this event will provide opportunities for our children and young sailors in Thailand to learn and gain great experience on the world stage.”
“It is our company’s vision for sustainability in the focus area of people development, and also in supporting youth and local communities which the business serves.”
Fast food restaurants have spent a mere US$3.4m since Q314 in Thailand’s sponsorship market with The Pizza Company squeaking into the Top 5 with a 1.8% market share by focusing on the nation’s highly niche sailing scene since 2015.
