A partnership between St John Ambulance and CPL Group will see the distribution and retailing of St John’s first aid kits across all CPL outlets particularly in the Pharmacy section CPL’s thirty plus Stop & Shop outlets around the country.
This partnership was made possible yesterday at the CPL Headquarters with the trust that St John’s supplies will reach communities where CPL outlets are located.
According to St John Ambulance CEO, Mr. Matthew Cannon, this is the first of its’ kind partnership between the two parties.
He said that CPL will be selling a range of First Aid Kits nationwide to all centers.
Cannon added that the aim is to reach those who find it difficult to obtain first aid kits in and outside of Port Moresby and so now with the partnership, St John is able to reach all areas of PNG where CPL operates.
“We couldn’t be happier with partnering with CPL, an organization going nationally for their quality and reliability. This partnership is about getting lifesaving products across to people who need it and as we know first aid saves lives so when initiated quickly, it is more effective.”
“This partnership will also help the ambulance service continue and to provide vital free emergency response and transport to Papua New Guineans across the country.”
CEO of CPL Group, Navin Raju, said that this was a great partnership signed to sell quality first aid kits provided by St John Ambulance.
Raju added that in the past CPL has been selling first aid kits and now CPL is getting one designed for different purposes rather than having one simple first aid kit available.
“Every toea raised from selling these kits helps St John raise some vital funds. Therefore we are more than happy to contribute towards their initiative to raise these funds.”
Raju commended St John Ambulance for their commitment and work and is looking forward to having all these products available in all CPL outlets across the country.
