‘Board’ members will be sharing their insight and expertise for the remainder of 2019 and the young Bata brand ambassadors will be wearing BATA brands, to school and while socialising, to get the full product experience. Suggestions, concepts and content will be shared during three ‘board’ meetings, that will be held during school holidays, so school work remains in top priority seat.

Each board member receives; school shoes of their choice, for the year; Tomy Takkies in three different styles or colours; one other brand of Bata shoes; a personalised Bata Youth Board of Directors business card; a Directors uniform of a ‘step out’ shirt and fun T-shirt; a tablet with data for the duration of their tenure; stationery; reading and e-reading books; online personalised courses; a powerful ‘real-life’ learning experience; a reference letter at the end of the tenure, signed by the MD of Bata; and directors deviance school fees or a donation to their school.

Congratulations to the youth, who have been chosen to ride the board, and be a part of the future. Bata is listening, so make your voice heard.
