Kirani James
Inks Deal With LIME
Kirani
James of Grenada, world champion in the men’s
400-meter run, will be making a dash for top
honours at the 2012 London Olympics and taking
the Caribbean’s LIME telecommunications
company along for the ride.
LIME, the region’s largest cell phone
provider, announced last week that James has
signed a three-year deal to represent the company
in the Caribbean. He joins the likes of former
men’s 100m World Record holder Asafa Powell
of Jamaica, Barbados’ World Champion in
the men’s 110m Hurdles, Ryan Brathwaite,
and St Lucia’s two-time Olympian, Levern
Spencer, as members of the LIME family.
Calling LIME a “prestigious, unique and
loyal brand,” James said it was a “no-brainer
for him to push through this deal.”
Governor General Sir Carlisle Glean and Sports
Minister Patrick Simmons and other island VIPs
attended the signing agreement. |
