Initiative kicks off at Pantai Dalam with a one-day event graced by YB Fahmi Fadzil Member of Parliament for Lembah Pantai and Minister of Communications
KUALA LUMPUR, 13 AUGUST 2024 – foodpanda Malaysia has introduced a delivery partner recruitment campaign providing quick earning opportunities, as part of its commitment to uplifting the local communities it serves.
The campaign, “Jejak Panda”, was launched by YB Fahmi Fadzil, Member of Parliament for Lembah Pantai and concurrently the Minister of Communications and Shubham Saran, Director of Operations at foodpanda Malaysia at a one-day event at IWK Eco Park in Pantai Dalam on 13 August 2024.
“Jejak Panda” reiterates foodpanda’s continuous efforts to uplift the communities it serves by offering easy access to earning opportunities. As freelancers, foodpanda delivery partners can work as and when they wish. This provides an accessible option for those seeking temporary income, or wanting to supplement their existing earnings.
The event, which was attended by over 150 Pantai Dalam residents, provided attendees an exclusive chance to sign up as a foodpanda delivery partner and receive their ID on the spot. Those who signed up also received on-the-day training and complimentary rider kit worth up to RM150. This allowed them to start delivering immediately, bypassing the usual 2-3 working day application process.
Attendees were treated to an afternoon of food, fun, and a series of activities, including free health and eye checkups. They also learnt about the welfare and engagement initiatives under ‘panda hearts’ – a recently launched programme designed to uplift and support delivery partners in key areas they value. Some of these benefits include insurance schemes available to all foodpanda delivery partners and their families, as well as upskilling programmes.
Shubham Saran, Director of Operations, foodpanda Malaysia, said, “As a leading delivery platform in Malaysia, we recognise the important role we play in supporting our communities and offering accessible earning opportunities. We are grateful for the support of our partners, which helps us reach more people and make a greater impact across Malaysia,”
“Our support for communities goes beyond just offering earning opportunities. As a foodpanda delivery partner, they will benefit from the welfare and engagement initiatives under panda hearts, helping them to get closer to their life goals and aspirations.” concludes Shubham.
