…deepen partnership to fuel athletes with hydration and energy
Kaieteur Sports – Archery Guyana announced the continuation and expansion of its successful partnership with Guyana Beverages Inc. (GBI), marking a milestone in athlete support and sustainable sports development.
As the official beverage sponsor, GBI, under the leadership of Managing Director Mr. Samuel Arjoon and dedicated team, will continue supplying Oasis purified water and the innovative new Altitude sports drink to all national archery events.
Oasis, celebrated for its crisp, premium taste, and Altitude: formulated with essential electrolytes (sodium, potassium, magnesium) and available in flavours like Fruit Punch, Grape, and Blue Frost, all offer vital hydration and recovery for athletes.
“Hydration is very important for archery, and any sport overall,” confirms Archery Guyana’s President, Vidushi Persaud‑McKinnon, who went on to express heartfelt gratitude to Arjoon and his GBI team, recognising their unwavering commitment to athlete well‑being and sport growth.
Their support not only enhances performance but also promotes the Olympic ideals of wellness and excellence.
Guyana Beverages Inc. will continue to support upcoming national tournaments, including the upcoming Outdoor Nationals 2025, by supplying hydration stations and athlete refreshments.
Education & Awareness: Joint campaigns on proper hydration, sports nutrition, and sustainability will be rolled out later this year.
Samuel Arjoon, Managing Director of GBI at the signing of the contract to renew partnership at the Diamond’s Head Office declared “We are honoured to continue supporting Archery Guyana. Oasis water and our new Altitude sports drink are designed to help athletes stay hydrated and energised, and we remain committed to supporting sports development in Guyana.”
In addition to hydration, the collaboration with GBI is increasingly geared toward sustainable practices.
Their products can be found at retailers nationwide and even though a distributor they facilitate walk-ins who purchase by a case and up at either their Head office situate at Plot 4A Plantation Great Diamond EBD or at the Branch Offices at Palmyra Berbice, Johanna Cecelia, Essequibo Coast.
With the renewed partnership, the National Federation, Archery Guyana and Guyana Beverages Inc. will be exploring the placement of recycling bins at competition venues and eco-awareness displays and athlete education on proper disposal and will be seeking to integrate International Days (e.g., World Environment Day, World Water Day) into archery events through small but meaningful actions.
“This collaboration is not just about sports it’s about the health of our people and our planet. We’re eager to align with GBI’s sustainability model and explore opportunities to make our events greener,” added Persaud-McKinnon.
