The St. Maarten Carnival Development Foundation (SCDF) and International Liquor Tobacco and Trading (ILTT) have joined forces again for Carnival 2011, continuing their long-standing working relationship. "Carnival is everyone's business, and Heineken, as a corporate sponsor has also stepped up to the plate for us, once again," remarked Stuart Johnson President of the SCDF.
Heineken beer and Captain Morgan Rum have served as the official beer and rum of Carnival 2011, respectfully. "We are making a substantial contribution towards Carnival in the amount of US $20,000 and other promotional materials," Marketing Manager of Heineken Nila Rambhadjan said. The planning of St. Maarten Carnival is a costly affair and we applaud the efforts of the SCDF, as the task of organizing Carnival isn't easy," she added.
Johnson said with Carnival 2011 coming to a close, the SCDF is looking forward to maintaining a working relationship with Heineken in 2012 and beyond.
