Nando's Qatar, renowned for its flame-grilled Peri-Peri chicken and a part of the Oryx Group for Food Services, has announced its participation in the annual campaign to promote breast cancer awareness, in partnership with the Qatar Cancer Society (QCS).
Nando's initiated the campaign with an internal awareness activity, educating their employees, affectionately known as Nandocas, about the importance of breast cancer awareness, a statement said.
This was followed by a "Pink Drink Competition," where all participants were encouraged to create their recipes for designer mocktail drinks using Nando's ingredients.
Mary Mae, representing Nando's Pearl Casa, emerged the winner. Her drink, "Bebida Rosa," a refreshing blend of fresh orange and lemon juice and grenadine syrup, became the favourite drink of the season and was chosen as the highlight for October across Nando's restaurants in Qatar.
Nando's pledged also to donate 10% of the earnings from the entire designer drink category to the QCS, furthering their commitment to breast cancer awareness.
Vyanktesh Jaiswal, COO of Nando's Qatar from the Oryx Group for Food Services, said: "We are deeply honoured to stand alongside the Qatar Cancer Society in this noble cause. Our commitment goes beyond crafting unique beverages for our patrons. It is about forging a healthier future for our community. We take immense pride in our Nandocas and their unwavering dedication to making a meaningful difference."
Zakariya Karazoun from Marketing & Business Development at QCS, added: "We appreciate the support and partnership of Nando's Qatar and Oryx Group for Food Services in raising awareness about breast cancer in their unique way. Every effort towards awareness makes an impact."
