Go St. Peter’s College Rugby!

We were honoured to be invited as the chief guests to the St. Peter’s College Rugby Team Sponsor Felicitation Ceremony in Sri Lanka. Our Managing Director, Trishan Satyadheva addressed the audience thanking them for the opportunity given to Nabco to be the first-ever platinum sponsor to have the brand name displayed in front of the team jersey. As a token of appreciation, the team presented a Jersey signed by them after winning the recent Rugby 7s championship.

A Ray of Hope in Cambodia

Nabco donated to Forest Town Church in St Albans to support their partners in Cambodia. The Church has a team that goes to Cambodia every year to support Bunna Yin and the Daughters of Cambodia. Bunna Yin is a church founder in rural Cambodia who helps and supports the local community through training and education.

This donation is another example of how Nabco is supporting communities to make a real change in people’s lives. Daughters of Cambodia empowers those trapped in the sex industry to walk free and start a new life, with healing, dignity, and the means to prosper. This is achieved by providing jobs coupled with recovery programs. The girls are taught how to sustain their new lifestyles in non-institutional settings so that they are able to remain connected to their communities and families.

We were privileged to be a part of Modern Expo’s mission of introducing Modern retail to the world. Together, we accomplished this mission impressing all our visitors.
Most importantly, what mattered to us most was that our partnership with Modern Expo was further strengthened in friendship and solidarity by functioning together as one team.

Nabco made history!

We made history by becoming the first-ever platinum sponsor of one of the premier school rugby teams in Sri Lanka, St. Peter’s College rugby.
For nine decades since the inception of rugby at the College, we had the honour of being the first brand to be displayed at the front of the team players’ jerseys. This was a proud moment for us to be able to become a supporting arm for the team with more than finances. We look forward to many opportunities arising from this sponsorship. Well wishes to the St. Peter’s College Rugby Team for a successful season!
