#LiveLikeAPanda: foodpanda Announces Multi Year partnership with NBA in the Philippines

NBA and foodpanda fans in the Philippines will surely find delight in enjoying their favorite meals while catching the latest game of basketball as the brands announce multi-year partnership in the country.


Over the weekend at SM Mall of Asia, foodpanda was named as the league’s first-ever official food delivery partner in the Philippines providing more excitement to all NBA fans in the country.


“Filipinos are known for their immense passion for basketball, and in the same way that the NBA is among the most popular sports leagues in the country, we’re committed to shaping foodpanda as the preferred choice of local consumers for online food delivery. We’re incredibly thrilled to launch this collaboration together with the NBA and offer engaging campaigns and activities to food lovers and sports fans alike,” said Guilherme Porto, foodpanda Philippines Director for Growth.

We’re excited to welcome foodpanda to the NBA family and to deepen our engagement with our passionate Filipino fans by leveraging foodpanda’s avid subscriber base. We look forward to working together to offer new and creative experiences that will bring fans and players in the Philippines closer to the game,” said Mae Dichupa, Senior Director, Global Marketing Partnerships, NBA Philippines.


As part of the partnership, foodpanda will serve as an official partner of NBA 3X Philippines presented by Mountain Dew, a 3-on-3 basketball tournament featuring men’s and women’s teams and NBA entertainment that will take place in Metro Manila next month. This season, foodpanda will have a presence in select NBA broadcasts across TV5 and One Sports through virtual signage on the court and launch promotions that will provide foodpanda users in the Philippines a chance to win exciting NBA prizes.
