Trade Kings Foundation joins the fight against Covid-19 in Zambia
Trade Kings Group, a leading Zambian manufacturer of fast-moving consumer goods, has launched the “Trade Kings Foundation Campaign against the spread of Coronavirus” as a joint initiative between its foundation and the Ministry of Health and Ministry of Information, pledging US $1.51 million towards this endeavour.
Lux Subramanium, general manager of Trade Kings, said that the donation will cover three important aspects: prevention, medical supplies and raising of awareness through the media.
In particular, the company will support local health authorities by providing a wide range of medical products and equipment including 20 ventilators, 25,000 pieces of personal protective equipment (masks, medical goggles, face shields and sterile medical gowns), as well as 25,000 nasopharyngeal swabs and medicines for 10,000 Covid-19 patients.
