Description

Background

Every year more than 8 million tons of plastic end up in our oceans and killing 100,000 marine mammals (UN Ocean conference, 2017). WFP has joined a global campaign to #BeatPlasticPollution and has accordingly started to phase out single-use plastics. To continue supporting and implementing the campaign, as well as raising broader awareness of the issue, the WFP Communications and Media Office (COM) division seeks to purchase reusable water bottles branded with WFP’s logo. The water bottles shall be sold as merchandise/visibility items and used by the WFP staff at home and work, including in public occasions.

To that effect, a WFP tender for the supply of reusable water bottles shall be posted, shortly.
