Nestlé Saudi Arabia signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Ertiqa, a nonprofit organization dedicated to refurbishing used technology appliances, to donate company computers and other equipment to support educational and social institutes in the Kingdom. The agreement was signed at Nestlé’s offices in Jeddah by Robert Helou, General Manager Nestlé Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, and Oman, and Omar Bin Khalid Al Shaibani, Chief Executive Officer of Ertiqa.
Commenting on the partnership, Helou said:” We commend the efforts of Ertiqa, and are happy that our equipment is being reused, and that we are contributing to providing more access to technology resources to those in need.”
This collaboration builds on the successful relationship between Nestlé Saudi Arabia and Ertiqa, where to date, over 1,000 computers and technology equipment have been donated, refurbished, and distributed to local institutions in need.
