New Zealand Rugby (NZR) is suing Ineos for an alleged breach of contract that will leave the national organisation exposed to potential multimillion-dollar losses.

NZR informed the provincial unions today it was launching legal action after Ineos, the world’s largest chemical producer owned by British billionaire Sir Jim Ratcliffe, abruptly walked away from its lucrative sponsorship agreement three years early and failed to make its first payment in 2025.
