MUMBAI: In the wake of the second wave of the Covid2019 pandemic, Wow! Momo has offered free vaccination for its 2,500+ employees. As the country looks forward to starting its 18+ vaccination drive from 1 May 2021 onwards, the Indian fast-food chain made this announcement keeping in mind its employee’s safety and welfare.

Incidentally, Wow! Momo’s staff vaccination drive coincides with International Workers’ Day or Labour Day, observed all over the world on 1 May.

CEO Sagar Daryani said, “Vaccination begins at home; it’s our attempt to give our Wow! employees a completely safe working condition and a reassurance that we will stick with them come what may. This is also a reward for their resilience and passion; they have been with us through thick and thin last year and this is the least we would want to do”.

With this initiative, the company is trying to ensure the safety of both employees and customers, noted Wow! Momo national head Niloy Chakraborty.

"For us our employees are our first consumers – and this initiative is a testimony of our people first mentality. Amidst the crisis of the second wave of the virus where India is fighting the battle together every single day, employees have been standing by the company in their support and are of the utmost importance. The company has quoted ‘Woh Safe toh Guest Safe. Guest Safe to Country Safe’,” Chakraborty elaborated.

Wow! Momo & Wow! China has more than 350 outlets pan-India. The initiative also pledges the brand's commitment towards safety, health and hygiene of its consumers. Be it delivery or take away; brand is ensuring all hygiene and safety standards.

“This is an initiative that is close to our heart; it marries our core values of people first and customer centricity to the need of the hour,” added Daryani.
