RUBiS, Nescafé partner to show appreciati­on for essential workers

-

RUBIS ENERGY Jamaica Limited and Nestlé Jamaica Limited, through its coffee brand Nescafé, have partnered in an effort to show appreciati­on to the island’s frontline workers in the battle against the novel coronaviru­s (COVID-19).

Since Monday, doctors, nurses, members of the Jamaica Constabula­ry Force (JCF) and Jamaica Defence Force (JDF), with valid photo identifica­tion, who visit select RUBiS locations islandwide, have been provided with a compliment­ary Nescafé beverage of their choice.

RUBiS Energy Jamaica Limited believes the selfless dedication of these front-line workers during the COVID-19 pandemic is highly commendabl­e. CEO of RUBiS Alain Carreau said, “Under the formidably difficult circumstan­ces, we at RUBiS are amazed by the resilience and care we see from people on the front lines. Their dedication and commitment is tremendous and we are truly inspired by our heroes.” He continued, “We, as a leadership team, while practising social distancing, continue to visit our RUBiS front-line staff and show support and solidarity for the work they too are doing to help us provide petrol for essential services,” shared Carreau.

Meanwhile, Country Manager of Nestlé Jamaica Daniel Caron believes the collaborat­ive approach is indicative of the positive impact the dedication of front-line workers is having on Jamaica. “Over the past few weeks, we have seen the spirit of the Jamaican people in the way our essential workers have stepped up to the plate, in service, during this time of crisis. They have all stepped out risking their own health for the greater good of the Jamaican people, and this cannot go unnoticed. This gesture is just a small token from us to them to say thank you and well done,” said Caron.

The offer by the two entities may be redeemed by doctors, nurses and members of the JDF and JCF at select RUBiS stores through May 10, or while stocks last. A list of participat­ing locations is available via RUBiS and Nestle’s online platforms.
