Beepats launched a Milo-branded mountain bike promotion on Friday as the first part of the company’s nutrition and health drive for 2010 in which a total of 110 bikes will be given away countrywide.
The promotion which officially got underway on Friday at the company’s head office at 101 Regent Street is geared at promoting health among young adults, a news release from Beepats said.
As part of this promotion, five students from secondary schools around Georgetown who excelled at the National 3rd Formers examination in 2009 were invited along with parents and a teacher from the respective schools to a brief health talk by Nestle Caribbean Inc. (NCI) Area Manager Feroze Mohammed and then each student was given a Milo- branded mountain bike.
NCI Sales and Development Manager Sudesh Mahase and Beepats, Nestle Business Manager in Guyana, Ramdat Rampersaud as well as Beepats, Nestle Brand Manager, Selwyn Bobb were also present.
The five students participating in the launch were Adenike Carrington (St John’s College); Daryl Watson (Central High School); Darcy Cumberbatch (Christ Church Secondary); Kaycia Ellis (Bishops’ High); and Raywantie Lall (St Stanislaus College).
The Milo bike promotion will see 20 bikes being given away fortnightly and there will be a grand draw on April 3 when 30 bikes will be given away, the release added.The students and Beepats officials can be seen in this photo

If you want to promote a healthy lifestyle then stop selling products laced with too much Sugar. Sugar leads to obesity, diabetes etc etc.
