He stated that the partnership's extension for another five years, now clarified as three years for the Accra brands, shows its success. He described the renewed agreement as a "statement of confidence" in The Multimedia Group.
The current agreement specifically covers the Accra brands of The Multimedia Group. This makes Republic Bank the title sponsor for the entire Habitat Fair portfolio nationwide. This comprehensive sponsorship ensures a broader reach for the bank's housing initiatives.
