RIYADH — LuLu, together with King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals (KFUPM), has kicked off the five-kilometer marathon on the occasion of KFUPM 32nd Rectors Cup last December 8. More than 2,000 participants attended the event, which was held at the premises of KFUPM compound.

Established in 1963, KFUPM has been providing high-level education about petroleum and minerals, two of the most valuable natural resources in KSA. It is a public university highly regarded for its science and engineering programs. Speaking about the occasion, LuLu Regional Director for Eastern Province Basheer said: “We are honored to have the privilege of supporting KFUPM not only in its goal to promote unity and camaraderie, most especially in ensuring the youth will have access to high quality education.”

Besides being well-known for its wide product range and outstanding customer service, LuLu has always been a key promoter of sustainability, environment protection, and especially extending help to less fortunate people. Over the years, the region’s top retailer has initiated many projects towards these advocacies and will continue to do so in the future. — SG
