Gleaner Sports - 22 March 2013: Digicel has scored an Olympic gold double with the news that it has extended its sponsorship contracts with the fastest man and woman on Earth, Usain Bolt and Shelly-Ann Fraser Pryce, for another four years.
With both athletes continuing to dominate the sprinting world with one sizzling and charismatic performance after another, the newly extended regional contracts - which run to the end of 2016 - will see Usain and Shelly-Ann representing Digicel in unique and engaging ways which are guaranteed to resonate with customers of all ages.
The double Olympic champions have been a part of the Digicel family for some time with Digicel spotting the talent in the young Bolt as far back as 2003 with Fraser-Pryce being signed up on the back of her stunning gold medal at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing.
Commenting on the new partnership, Bolt, said: "I want to thank Digicel for supporting me from the very beginning. That kind of loyalty means a lot. I hope that together with Digicel - and through my own efforts and achievements - I can help inspire people to do extraordinary things in their day-to-day lives."
