"Through our Goya Gives global initiative, Goya has always been at the

do nothing," said Bob Unanue, President and CEO of Goya Foods | Goya Europa. 
"We are blessed to have a presence nearby and we are fortunate to be able to 
answer the call for help. We send our prayers and love to the people of Ukraine

those in need."  

"Goya Europa's strategic location allows us to react with immediate 
assistance.  We have already begun handling the logistics of sending the food 
through our distribution partners in Poland and Ukraine," said William Unanue, 
General Manager of Goya Europa. 

Through Goya Gives, Goya donated over 4.5 million pounds of food during the
