July 14, 2022

Quebec City, July 14, 2022 – Beneva is now an official corporate partner of the National Bank Open presented by Rogers through its recent association with Tennis Canada. To mark the occasion, Beneva is giving tennis fans access to its balcony so they can see the Montreal Tournament up close from August 5-14. To be lucky enough to win one of the 50 pairs of tickets, fans have until July 27 to enter the Win Your Place at the Beneva Balcony contest.

“We are very pleased with this partnership because it gives Beneva exceptional reach and visibility as it continues its brand deployment. In addition to the contest, Beneva is preparing a space where fans can relax and have fun,” said Louis-Philippe Roux, Vice-President, Marketing and Communications at Beneva.

“We are thrilled to have Beneva as a corporate partner of the National Bank Open presented by Rogers,” said Claude Savard, Vice-President, Corporate Partnerships at Tennis Canada. “After a two-year hiatus, our tournament is back at full capacity, and we know that fans will thoroughly enjoy the activities and installations proposed by Beneva from August 5-14 at IGA Stadium.”

Behind the scenes actors and community engagement

It takes over 1,200 employees and volunteers to ensure the success of an event like the National Bank Open presented by Rogers. Since Beneva puts people first, it was essential for the company to acknowledge this work and reward those working behind the scenes. Exclusive contests will be held during the event to acknowledge their contribution. Moreover, all the furnishings and accessories, including the plants, used in the Beneva station will be subsequently donated to Ruelles Vertes de Montréal.

Beneva is also a corporate partner of the National Bank Open presented by Rogers in Toronto, which runs August 6-14.
