Fitzroy Surf Lifesaving Club.
Primo have thrown their support behind Taranaki Rugby ahead of the 2021 rugby season.
The locally owned and operated Taranaki business has become an Official First XV Partner for 2021 and will have their brand displayed on the upper back of the Yarrows Taranaki Bulls #3 jersey.
Primo were established in 2006 to provide wireless broadband services to remote Taranaki communities who struggled to get access to fast broadband services. They now provide both wireless and ultrafast broadband services to thousands of corporate and rural customers across Taranaki.
Primo is based on Molesworth Street in New Plymouth and has grown to now employ a team of 21 fantastic local staff who know our region like the back of their hand.
Primo Business Manager Kelly Ellis, said the partnership was all about continuing to grow their brand while supporting their region.
“Primo’s whole ethos of giving back comes from the fact that it was our community who firstly gave to us. It was those early adopters, some that even paid for sites to be built themselves, that’s meant we can do what we do now. It seems only right that we Primo It Forward”.
Ellis goes on to say: “It really is a whole of Taranaki team effort and we’re excited to extend our support of grassroots rugby and get behind our Yarrows Taranaki Bulls this season. It’s our dream to take our team of Taranaki to the team of five million so that they too can all enjoy Primo at their place, and seeing our brand on the back of a Yarrows Taranaki Bulls jersey is an exciting step in that direction.”
Taranaki Rugby Commercial Manager Jimmy Fastier was thrilled to have Primo join the Taranaki Rugby family for 2021.
“Primo are a fantastic example of a Taranaki start-up company. They deliver quality broadband solutions to their clients and they are also huge supporters of their local community.”
Primo are strong supporters of the Taranaki community and support over 90 organisations with their own connectivity needs, as well as numerous Free Primo Wi-Fi hotspots including New Plymouth & Hawera hospitals, and the Hawera and Stratford town centres https://primo.nz/info/primo-hotspots-2

The Mischievous Monkey
He’s worked outdoors for over 10 years and loves it! In a previous life he was a travelling barista selling his coffees around NZ. Pity he isn’t in the office much, he could make us all coffees!
Being the outdoors guy that he is, he loves his motorbike riding and is an active member in the Triumph Motorcycle Club. He’s a bit of a home mechanic and if he was doing any other job it would be as a motocross rider. He brings with him a wide range of knowledge and skills across the telecommunications, electronics, defence, welding and fabrication sectors.
Born and bred in Taranaki, Lee loves the mountain to surf and the great weather! Just as well seeing as he’s outdoors every day.
About a year ago we were looking for a way to keep members and the general public up to date with the lake level, usage and conditions at the lake.
As part of this, Primo wireless were approached to see if they could install a webcam overlooking the lake.
Primo kindly offered to install 2 web cams at no cost and with the images they display posed on the Primo webcams page.
Since the install the webcams have been a huge success with club members and the general public alike.
Thanks to Primo our officers have had uninterrupted contact with Cadetnet and the New Zealand Cadet forces head quarters to help plan and execute programmes for our cadets.
The MOST FM has been a part of Taranaki culture since the early 1990s. As commercial radio has moved to a nationwide network model, Taranaki’s MOST FM has become even more local.
The MOST FM means Taranaki. We are passionate about Taranaki people, activities, businesses, produce and culture. We talk on-air with local leaders, musicians, artists, sportspeople, business people, chefs and many more every week.
The MOST means Volunteers. We have more than 50 volunteer presenters who host weekly specialist music shows over a wide range of musical styles and tastes.
Without Primo we wouldn’t have a Breakfast Show! The sponsorship from Primo enables The Most FM to remain relevant and on-air. The Most FM is operated by the Taranaki FM Trust, a registered charitable trust, and we can only continue operating with support from the community.
