The company joins other 14 organisations such as Emirates Airlines, DNATA, and HSBC as part of its plans to take corporate social responsibility for its surroundings. BAFCO employees have collected more than 500 plastic bottles to construct a boat that will race along Dubai Creek.

Along with generating awareness for the initiative, BAFCO has donated Dhs10,000, with every dirham raised going directly to the 'Clean Dubai' initiative, run by the Emirates Environmental Group.

Gilbert Grino, BAFCO Senior Marketing Executive, said:
"We wanted to support this initiative to draw attention to local environmental issues. It was also a great way of getting all of our people involved in collecting waste plastic bottles."


The distance of each race is 100m and each team will participate in total of two races. The first qualifying race will start at 2pm with the final race at 4:45pm.
