foodpanda Logistics Hosts the Biggest “Pautastic Event ng Taon” Yet to Honor Ka-panda Delivery Partners

foodpanda Logistics celebrated its third annual “Pautastic Event ng Taon” Year-End Party on December 8, 2024, at the Aseana City Open Grounds, Parañaque City. The event was a grand tribute to the tireless dedication of its Ka-panda delivery partners, growing larger and more inclusive by welcoming their families and friends to the festivities.

Honoring Hard Work and Commitment

The celebration began with the Ka-panda Rider Caravan, a unique initiative where delivery partners had their accounts checked and updated to ensure a seamless experience for the coming year. The caravan also extended opportunities to aspiring delivery riders, showcasing foodpanda’s commitment to expanding its fleet.

Exciting Pre-Show Highlights

The event offered more than just celebrations. Pre-show activities included engaging booths from official partners, where attendees enjoyed delicious food, beverages, and interactive games. A standout was the Bamboo Earning Booth, where Ka-pandas learned how to earn bamboo points through deliveries. These points were redeemable for exclusive foodpanda merchandise, adding a rewarding twist to the celebration.

An Evening of Entertainment

As night fell, attendees were treated to electrifying performances by some of the Philippines' most beloved OPM artists, including Sponge Cola, I Belong to the Zoo, and Arci Muñoz, along with other special guests. The program also featured thrilling on-stage games, a massive raffle draw, and exclusive prizes.

To ensure all Ka-pandas across the country felt included, the event was live-streamed on Facebook, allowing virtual participants to join the fun and win prizes from the comfort of their homes.

Supported by Trusted Brand Partners

The event was made possible through the generous support of brand partners, including CignalPlay, Mega Prime Foods Inc., Seaoil, Realme, and official transport partner Angkas. Major sponsors like Universal Robina Corporation, Converge, Jack N’ Jill Snacks, GoTyme, Kawasaki, and many others added to the event's success, making it an unforgettable experience for attendees.
