Zim official sponsor of MF1

MF1 Racing - the Formula One team owned and operated by Midland Group - is pleased to announce a partnership agreement with Zim Integrated Shipping Services, one of the world's largest container shipping companies. Zim's distinctive 'seven star' logo will appear on the Midland Toyota M16 throughout the 2006 World Championship season.

Colin Kolles, MF1 Racing's Managing Director "Zim is a progressive, global company that we are proud to welcome as a team partner. Zim's core values - a commitment to excellence through quality, team work and efficiency, as well as their competitive orientation - parallel MF1 Racing's. This is a very good fit that will benefit both organizations." 

Doron Goder, President & CEO of Zim Integrated Shipping Industries "Zim's vision is to be a leading competitive global shipping and logistics company, setting high-level standards in the industry - a company with goals and values our
employees and partners can identify with. In many ways, Formula One racing is a lot like shipping: it requires strategy, dedication and precision. For us, it is an excellent marketing platform. We believe that associating our company with a dynamic, motivated team such as MF1 Racing is a perfect way to raise Zim's brand profile globally."
