Property portal Zoopla has been named the first-ever official front-of-shirt partner of Manchester Super Giants, marking a landmark commercial agreement for the newly rebranded franchise as the 2026 season of The Hundred gets underway.
The partnership follows the transformation of Manchester Originals into Manchester Super Giants after the franchise came under the ownership of RPSG Group. Under the agreement, Zoopla’s branding will feature on the front of the playing shirts worn by both the men’s and women’s teams throughout the tournament.
The collaboration forms part of Zoopla’s wider marketing strategy to expand its brand visibility across the UK and connect with homeowners and prospective movers ahead of the busy autumn property market. By aligning with one of English cricket’s fastest-growing competitions, the property platform aims to leverage The Hundred’s growing national reach and strong family-oriented audience.
Since its launch in 2021, The Hundred has attracted more than 2.5 million spectators and generated over one billion video views across digital platforms, making it an increasingly attractive proposition for brands seeking broad consumer engagement during the summer sporting calendar.
Paul Whitehead, CEO at Zoopla, said, “Partnering with Manchester Super Giants puts Zoopla in front of exactly the audience we want to reach—homeowners and movers thinking about their next move.
“The Hundred’s blend of national reach and local pride makes it the perfect stage for that message, right before the market gets ready for the autumn selling season. We’re proud to be the club’s first-ever shirt sponsor and to back a team with such ambition.”
Vinay Chopra, Chief Executive of RPSG Sports, added, “We’re really excited to welcome Zoopla as our first front-of-shirt sponsor. It’s a significant partnership that reflects the momentum we’re building as a new team and the opportunity Manchester Super Giants provides for leading brands.”
The partnership was officially unveiled as Manchester Super Giants began their inaugural campaign in The Hundred, with Zoopla’s branding making its on-field debut during the opening fixture against London Spirit at Lord’s. The new era got off to a dream start, with both the men’s and women’s teams registering comfortable victories to open their respective campaigns.
Manchester Super Giants will now look to build on that winning start when they host Birmingham Phoenix on July 26 before taking on Sunrisers Leeds, Trent Rockets and Welsh Fire in the coming rounds, as the franchise aims to establish itself as an early contender in its first season under its new identity.
