Sponsorships are among the key marketing tools we use to reach out and communicate with our various customers. Through sponsorships, Caltex is able to associate with a well-known property that shares the same values and characteristics that we aspire for our brand.

Sponsorship is part of Caltex’s way of doing business. It involves providing money, products or services, in exchange for commercial value or brand recognition for Caltex. This is different from donation which is giving financial support to charitable organizations with minimal or no expected commercial value for Caltex. In contrast, we consider sponsorship to be one of the most effective ways for Caltex to reach out and build our relationship with our various target customers.

The property we choose to sponsor should reflect our brand values. Caltex is all about renewing your drive momentum. Our role is to meet your short term needs for your car, as well as for yourself so that you can stay focused on achieving your long term goals. This commitment to service excellence is all captured in our advertising tagline "What Drives You" which transcends all aspects of Caltex business.

Examples of sponsorships we have done in the past include the following:

Caltex Masters, Singapore, 2000 – 2005

How to Apply for Sponsorships

Caltex uses various criteria to evaluate sponsorships. As a minimum, the property should be able to deliver the following benefits:

  • Performance - property has a leadership position in its category and is considered "best in class." It promotes such attributes as teamwork, discipline, and a desire to be the best. The property or the people involved has received awards recognizing them for its excellence.
  • Partnership - Property is recognized for its integrity

• The property should be able to maximise Caltex's presence. This could be either through on-site branding, or communication via the tri-media, internet and all other channels available.
• The property commands media attention and is able to generate free publicity either because its popular, unique, or innovative.
• The property is able to offer Caltex a title, presenting or sole sponsor status.
• The property has a good track record in terms of viewership and attendance; and significant loyal following.
• The property is embraced by the community and will position Caltex and its retailers as "major players" and/or good corporate citizens in the community. This can be done through an outreach program or fund-raising event integrated into the sponsorship.
