Friend in need

Written by 

EMBATTLED AUCKLAND mayor Len Brown is turning to Fonterra to kick-start his 2014 programme.

 

While no deal has been reached on the co-op buying naming rights for Shed 10 on Queens Wharf, the council and Fonterra are talking. For its part Fonterra needs to promote its Anchor brand, which was hit by the minor E.Coli contamination in a small batch of fresh cream. Brown needs to move on from his sexual affair and free hotel rooms. It smacks of one damaged brand helping another.
