Initiative Supports Company’s Social Responsibility Strategy, Aims to Promote Retail Offerings across UAE
ADNOC Distribution today inaugurated its service station and ADNOC Oasis retail store at Kidzania, the award-winning interactive entertainment and education centre for children at Dubai Mall.
Abdulla Salem Al Dhaheri, CEO of ADNOC Distribution, inaugurated the opening ceremony in the presence of the company’s senior management, Mayor of Kidzania and several high profile guests.
The replica service station enables children and young adults to learn more about the vital oil and gas industry and how to provide fueling and car maintenance services while role-playing as service station employees in a fun and safe setting. It also provides the children with safety tips on the importance of switching off car engine and mobile phone while refueling, and not to leave the car without the company of their parents inside the station.
The opening of the service station and ADNOC Oasis store at Kidzania is in line with ADNOC Distribution’s corporate social responsibility mandate to instill awareness in the younger generation about the safety and security of the local community.
Abdulla Salem Al Dhaheri said: “We are glad to inaugurate our ADNOC Distribution pavilion at Kidzania – a unique education and entertainment concept that has become a household name among children and parents in the UAE and abroad. Through our presence at the centre, ADNOC Distribution is keen to provide an optimal learning environment for children and guide the next generation on essential best practices to safeguard the environment while accessing services such as fueling cars, Lube and car maintenance services among others.”
Al Dhaheri added: “At ADNOC Distribution, we are firmly committed to supporting and engaging with the local community through our day-to-day operations, and this initiative will complement our ongoing comprehensive social awareness agenda. The Kidzania pavilion will also augment our collaboration with different educational and national bodies and institutions on a wider level to support our strategic objectives.”Kidzania offers a wide range of mini scaled service models of banks, hospitals, universities, and media organisations, seeking to provide insights to children on essential services that impact their day to day activities.
