Statement on Behalf of Ace Rentals Re: the Ace ‘Whaka’ Billboard
Ace Rentals never intended the ‘Whaka’ billboard in Parnell to cause any offence. It has been up for three weeks and until now the company has received no complaints.
The purpose of the creative was a good natured play on words and we believed the New Zealand public would appreciate the humour and good intent.
We apologise to anyone who has been offended and have removed the billboard.
