Caribbean Bottling Company (CBC), the local producer of Coca-Cola products, have sponsored the One Family Junkanoo & Community Organization as they prepare for the 2023 Boxing Day Parade. Proudly Bahamian, CBC supports the local community through donations and participation at several cultural events throughout the year, including local Regattas.
“We’re very pleased to lend our support to such an essential part of our national identity,” said Jadrian Turnquest – Marketing Manager CBC. “Junkanoo is fundamentally Bahamian, and as dedicated corporate citizens we look to extend support to events and activities that sustain and celebrate our Bahamian culture.”
Media and PR Coordinator for One Family Junkanoo Group, Mr. Anthony Coakley, expressed their gratitude stating, “One Family is thankful and proud to be once again partnering with CBC and its fine portfolio of products. For the past five Junkanoo parades, we have successfully collaborated to enhance the presentation of the group and add exciting elements to the experience for the thousands of fans watching, clearly creating a winning formula. CBC sponsorship is proof of their commitment to support our greatest national cultural expression; Junkanoo.”
In addition to monetary support, CBC will also join One Family to provide complimentary soft drinks to spectators along the parade.
