This summer, delivery riders in the UAE are in for a refreshing treat. Talabat and Barakat have teamed up to distribute a staggering 30,000 free ice creams, bringing a delightful break to those who keep our favourite food and drinks flowing. Every Tuesday in Abu Dhabi and every Friday in Dubai, until 31 August, riders will get to enjoy these frozen delights. It’s a cool way to show appreciation for their hard work during the scorching summer months.
Annual ‘Summer Together’ Initiative By Talabat And Barakat
The ice cream giveaway is part of Talabat’s annual ‘Summer Together’ initiative, designed to offer more than just a sweet respite. This year’s programme features 25 conveniently located rest areas across the UAE. These havens are air-conditioned, noise-free, and equipped with water dispensers and mobile recharge stations. They provide a comfortable space for riders to unwind, recharge, and stay hydrated, ensuring their summer is as smooth as their deliveries.
Talabat Mart And Cloud Kitchen Breaks
In addition to the ice cream treats, Talabat is expanding its support with 49 Talabat Mart and cloud kitchen spaces spread across all emirates. These locations serve as ideal pit stops for riders to take a break between orders. Whether it’s grabbing a quick snack or simply relaxing, these spaces are designed to offer convenience and comfort to keep riders refreshed throughout their busy shifts.
Talabat and Barakat also encourage the public to greet delivery riders with a smile and kind words. Offering a bottle of water or a cool beverage when receiving an order is another way to show appreciation and support for these essential workers.
