Talabat UAE, a food and quick commerce delivery platform in the country has announced that it has completed voluntary rider vaccination programme across the country. In the campaign the company has fully vaccinated its entire fleet of over 15,000 riders across all seven emirates.

The initiative was carried out in close collaboration with the Department of Health - Abu Dhabi and Abu Dhabi Health Services Company (Seha), and the Ministry of Health and Prevention in less than a year. It was initiated in December last year.

“We are extremely grateful to our riders for choosing to vaccinate, and we are proud to say that all of our riders have made this choice. By ensuring their safety, and that of the communities they serve, our riders are taking an active role in the UAE’s continued journey to recovery,” said Jérémy Doutté, vice-president UAE at Talabat.

“The UAE quickly established itself as one of the leading countries in the world through a proactive response. It has been our responsibility as industry leaders to support the government and help the economy return to its pre-Covid state as fast as possible. We are proud to be one of the first private companies to complete our nationwide vaccination programme,” he said.
