Panda Azizia United recently concluded a series of celebrations it organized in all markets Kingdomwide marking the 84th National Day.

The celebrations included a number of cultural events, offering memorial gifts, and distributing nearly 400,000 flags to all shoppers and children and 10-meter-long free cake for Panda customers where children were allowed to make decorations and write slogans on it showing passion and love to the country and its key figures.

The celebrations come in the context of Panda’s efforts to encourage families join celebrations of the National Day and deepen national values as the most important bases for partnership programs to serve the community.

The celebrations of the current year included entertainment and cultural contests for different age categories dealing with Saudi geographical and historic information.

Company CEO Muwafaq Mansour Jamal said the expansion of Panda’s celebrations to cover tens of its markets Kingdomwide was aimed to spread national messages to a variety of age groups in the Saudi society in a bid to boost awareness on the importance of national security and plant the spirit of belonging and allegiance among them.

Ahmed Omar Al-Mansi, executive director of marketing and development, said the national functions organized by Panda, notably the National Day festivities, were part of the company’s commitment to the society.

The national functions also come in the context of the company’s strategy toward the society based on a series of social and environmental programs and developmental initiatives aimed to realize social and environmental well-being, he said.
