The MOYA fuel station network is once again engaging in initiatives by the “Warsaw Marathon” Foundation. The brand will support the 18th Nationale-Nederlanden Warsaw Half Marathon, and race participants will be able to relax in a specially prepared relaxation zone provided by MOYA. They can enjoy delicious coffee and receive gifts in their race packets.
MOYA has been actively supporting initiatives promoting a healthy lifestyle and shaping social awareness regarding physical activity for years. In 2024, it continues as a Supporting Brand of the Warsaw Marathon Foundation during the 18th Nationale-Nederlanden Warsaw Half Marathon, the 18th Marathon Relay, and the 46th Nationale-Nederlanden Warsaw Marathon.
During the 18th Nationale-Nederlanden Warsaw Half Marathon, MOYA will create a special relaxation zone in the Runners’ Village, providing participants with the opportunity to unwind before and after the challenge. Caffe MOYA will offer aromatic coffee in various varieties, served with passion by experienced baristas. It’s a special blend of Arabica and Robusta, selected from crops in Brazil, Vietnam, and Nicaragua, giving it a unique flavor unavailable elsewhere. Runners will have the chance to try modern coffee makers, ensuring professional preparation of drinks such as espresso, latte, cappuccino, mocha, or flat white. Known for its stimulating properties, the coffee available in the relaxation zone will help alleviate muscle soreness and replenish energy after physical exertion. In addition to coffee, fruit juices will be available in the MOYA relaxation zone.
An important aspect of Anwim company’s participation in the half marathon, the owner of the MOYA network, is the involvement of company employees. It’s not just brand promotion but also an opportunity to build bonds among team members through shared goals and challenges. Company employees will also join the race, demonstrating their commitment to a healthy lifestyle and solidarity with the ideals of social responsibility.
