Rijas Aces appoints cricket legend Herschelle Gibbs as Brand Ambassador for Dubai project

Rijas Aces, the developers of DusitPrincess Rijas Dubai, announced the engagement of South African cricket legend Herschelle Gibbs as the project’s Brand Ambassador.

Slated to open mid-2020, the upper-midscale property is strategically located within Jumeirah Village Circle, just 15 minutes by car from the new Al Makhtoum International Airport, and close to numerous major shopping and entertainment venues, including the upcoming World Expo site.

A sporting icon with a large following of fans across the region, Herschelle Gibbs is renowned for his many feats in cricket in a playing career spanning some 14 years. Not only was he the first player to hit six consecutive sixes in one over in One Day International cricket (ODI), but he is also one of only eight batsmen in ODI history to score hundreds in three consecutive innings. He also helped lead South Africa to a record-breaking win over Australia by slamming a brilliant 175 in 111 balls.

“Herschelle Gibbs is a sportsman who stands for never falling short of excellence and delivering in the face of adversity; a few concepts that echo our corporate ethos at Rijas Aces,” said Kashif Shahzad, President, Rijas Aces. “We are pleased to have him as our brand ambassador of this project, and we feel his brand of exuberance in sports reflects aptly with our vision.”

Herschelle Gibbs said, “It is nothing short of an honor to represent this project, and I feel privileged to be a part of the journey.”

“The engagement of a world class athlete and personality like Herschelle Gibbs, is a reflection of our global approach and outlook towards developing relationships to deliver the finest products, befitting to our audience’s needs,” said Yusuf Paracha, Director, Rijas Aces.

Rijas Aces will now use this alignment to create a series of global digital and traditional marketing campaigns.
