Europcar accelerates NBL deal

The long-standing partnership between the Hungry Jack’s National Basketball League (NBL) and Europcar will continue for a ninth consecutive year. 

As part of the new deal, NBL referees will continue to wear iconic green Europcar uniforms throughout the season.

“Europcar’s loyalty and dedication to the NBL has been profound and it’s incredible that it is fast closing in on a decade-long partnership with our League,” NBL Chief Partnerships Officer, Lauren Hansen, said.

“As foundation partners of the League since our relaunch in 2015, Europcar has been a key factor in the NBL’s rapid resurgence in recent times. With the support of Managing Director Benoit Garel, we are sure Europcar will continue to assist the NBL’s growth and upward trajectory.

“Europcar provides essential services to our players, coaches, referees, support staff, partners and fans when they travel around Australia and New Zealand for games during the season, and we look forward to another fantastic year together.”

“Europcar is proud to continue its collaboration with the NBL as it forges ahead in its journey of growth and prominence. The partnership renewal underscores Europcar's commitment to delivering sustainable mobility solutions that cater to the NBL’s community, valued partners, and the passionate fans who drive the league's growing popularity,” Europcar Managing Director, Benoit Garel, said.

Europcar Mobility Group operates in more than 140 countries, offering mobility solutions for businesses and consumers. The Group’s purpose is to offer attractive alternatives to vehicle ownership, in a responsible and sustainable way. Europcar has national footprints in both Australia and New Zealand, covering airports, cities, suburbs and regional areas, with an extensive range of passenger, prestige and commercial vehicles.  

The 2023/24 Hungry Jack’s NBL Season begins on Thursday, September 28, when Melbourne United hosts the South East Melbourne Phoenix at John Cain Arena.
