Celebrating Love and Home Protection this Valentine’s Season!

Harare, Zimbabwe – [Tuesday, 18 February 2025] –This Valentine’s season, we at Zimnat General Insurance set out to create a truly unforgettable experience, blending creativity with a powerful message about securing what matters most—your home.

On Monday, 17 February 2025, we officially unveiled this "gift" in grand style, accompanied by a captivating live saxophone performance from the renowned Denilson.

 

Inside the towering gift box stood a fully furnished two-bedroom house from Instant Homes, a striking representation of the value of affordable and reliable home insurance. Our campaign was designed to spark conversations about home protection in a way that resonates with every Zimbabwean.

                                                                .                         

“This initiative was about more than just marketing—it was about engaging with our customers in a meaningful way,” said Mrs. Betty Chiware-Togarasei, CEO of Zimnat General Insurance. “A home is one of life’s most precious investments, and just like a gift, it deserves to be protected.”

Our bold activation quickly became the talk of Harare, drawing attention both on the ground and online. Social media was abuzz with reactions, as people shared their excitement and curiosity about the giant wrapped house. The overwhelming response reinforced our belief that insurance isn’t just about policies—it’s about peace of mind, security, and, ultimately, love.

At Zimnat, we don’t just provide insurance—we create moments that matter. This Valentine’s Day, we celebrated love, security, and the joy of homeownership in a way that left a lasting impression.

Stay connected for more innovative initiatives as we continue to lead the way in customer-focused solutions.
