A Celebration of Dedication

The year-end party served as a heartfelt tribute to the dedication and commitment of foodpanda Logistics’ delivery fleet. This year, the event kicked off with the Ka-panda Rider Caravan, where Ka-pandas had their accounts checked and updated, ensuring a smoother experience for the year ahead.

As a working college student, Brenda Isederio manages her time between studies and being a delivery partner for delivery service provider, foodpanda logistics. Now in her third year of college, Brenda juggles her studies with supporting her family. Her mom is a streetsweeper, and her dad is a maintenance worker. 

Receiving an invitation to join the Ka-pandaBIZ: Women on Wheels (WoW) program felt like an answered prayer. Brenda is one of six women from the Ka-panda delivery fleet who graduated from the Ka-pandaBIZ livelihood and training program.
