Jollibee Group has announced a partnership with the Department of Education (DepEd) to invest in education initiatives in the Philippines. The collaboration aims to develop a quick service restaurant (QSR) curriculum for senior high school students. Additionally, Jollibee Group plans to construct 50 classrooms by 2028 as part of its broader educational investment strategy.
The partnership was officially launched to coincide with Jollibee’s 50th anniversary. The QSR curriculum is designed to prepare students for careers in the food service industry, equipping them with the necessary skills and knowledge. This initiative is aimed at addressing the skills gap in the industry and ensuring a steady pipeline of trained professionals.
The construction of classrooms is part of efforts to address the classroom backlog in the country. The initiative supports the Philippine government’s ongoing efforts to improve education infrastructure and accessibility.
Jollibee Group’s investment underscores its commitment to social responsibility and contribution to national development. The partnership with DepEd aligns with the company’s vision of supporting education and empowering the youth.
This collaboration with DepEd marks a significant step in Jollibee’s strategy to support educational growth and infrastructure development in the Philippines.
