According to DDL Marketing Director, Sharda Veeren-Chand:“Pepsi is looking forward to a Guyana win on Sunday. We believe in the potential of the Golden Jaguars and as a football team they will certainly make us proud as a country. It is important for every Guyanese to go out and roar with the jaguars.

The Golden Jaguars should be proud about their accomplishments. Their outstanding performance recently is certainly an inspiration to all young footballers, ” Vereen-Chand added.

And, Guyana Football Federation President, Colin Klass, said : “For a long time I have been challenging the private sector in Guyana to support the National Team and Pepsi’s leadership in the Golden Jaguars World Cup campaign at this stage is critical to the team’s success in the next round.”

He added: “Fan support is a critical factor in this game. And the Pepsi investment went directly to the efforts to promote the game to fans.”

Despite Guyana’s one – nil loss against Suriname last Saturday, Pepsi showed its unwavering support by welcoming the team at the Moleson Creek Ferry Stelling the next day. The Pepsi models along with the rest of the Pepsi team gave the Golden Jaguars a heartfelt welcome as they exited the ferry. And this was followed by a road show from the Corentyne to Georgetown.

Banks Beer and Church’s Chicken have also shown their support to the Golden Jaguars.

Both companies are official sponsors of the game on Sunday, lending vital corporate support at this critical stage of the Golden Jaguars’ World Cup campaign.
