Chile's Blumar, in collaboration with DeliBest Chile and the National Board of School Assistance and Scholarships (Junaeb), has begun delivering salmon portions to the children of the Bernardo de Bruyne School in Río Verde. This partnership will soon also benefit students at the Dellamira Rebeca Aguilar School in Punta Arenas.

Regarding this initiative, Blumar's Community Manager, Francisca López, said: "Blumar aims to bring the product closer to its communities, and the best way to do this is through schools, where children can consume a product of excellent quality. This important milestone is made possible thanks to the territorial alliances we have established."

Finally, María José Almonacid, Technical Control Analyst at DeliBest, expressed gratitude for the completion of this partnership, which was achieved after several months of collaboration between Blumar and Merkén, a subsidiary of DeliBest, with support from the regional Junaeb from the outset. "This directly benefits the children," she confirmed.
