Brand Museum adds top sponsor

"The museum's stated goal of promoting the past, present and future of branding could equally describe the group's 126 year heritage, current success and future prospects," says the museum's founder Ken Preston, publisher of Brands & Branding in South Africa.

The Museum Council has recently welcomed to its ranks several more well-known figures from branding, advertising and academia, who share the same belief in the benefits the museum will bring to the industry, education, tourism and the people of South Africa.
