Grand prize includes logo placement on the No. 17 Fifth Third Ford
Fifth Third Bank (NASDAQ: FITB) launched a contest this week offering
small business owners a chance to have their company’s logo featured on
NASCAR driver Ricky Stenhouse Jr.’s No. 17 Fifth Third Ford.
The Fifth Third Bank “What Drives You” Small Business Contest kicks off
today and runs through May 7. The Bank hopes customers and owners
nominate small businesses for the way they rev up the communities they
serve, never slow down and never stop pushing toward the finish line.
One lucky business will be selected to have its company logo featured on
the No. 17 Fifth Third Ford during the Coke Zero 400 Powered By
Coca-Cola. Held at Daytona
International Speedway on July 1, the race is one of NASCAR’s most
anticipated events of the year.
“We understand the unwavering energy and endless hours that keep a small
business running,” said Kala Gibson, head of Business Banking for Fifth
Third Bank. “At Fifth Third, we salute this hard work to turn a dream
into reality. We’re excited to gain exposure for one small business to
the millions of fans in attendance and watching the race from home.”
The winner and a guest will also receive a VIP experience to the race to
see their logo fly around the track. This includes airfare, hotel
accommodations, pit box seating and a chance to meet Ricky Stenhouse Jr.
Companies with less than 100 employees in the Bank’s 10-state footprint
are eligible to enter. The contest runs now through May 7. The winner
will be announced in June.
