SINGAPORE - Media OutReach^[1] - July 8, 2019 - Customers were all smiles over the weekend as Huawei^[2] threw an island-wide drink giveaway with local tea brand, Partea. The company also provided complimentary phone servicing for all during its monthly Service Day^[3] which received a resounding turn out.

Last Wednesday, Huawei announced that it was giving away free drinks from Partea to thank its customers for their continued support. The gesture comes on the back of recent global events and the company is determined to provide exceptional customer experiences to show its appreciation for its loyal supporters. Recognising Singaporeans' love for bubble tea, Huawei is offering this exclusive promotion with Partea for another weekend from July 12 -- 14, 2019.* In an effort to accommodate all Huawei users in Singapore to enjoy this offer, the two companies have agreed to serve as many cups as possible within the timeframe of 11am -- 2 pm.

It has been doing better every year so I am confident that the brand will continue to exceed people's expectations," added Mr. Goh, when asked on his thoughts about the brand.

Xu Chengfei, Managing Director of Huawei Consumer Business Group Singapore said: "We are immensely grateful for the support that we have received from our customers and partners in Singapore. We would not come this far without their support; and as a show of our appreciation, we partnered with Partea to offer a premium selection of teas to our loyal fans. The turnout has been incredible and it's great to see how happy it makes everyone."

"We also want to make special thanks to Partea for their generous support in extending this promotion for our Huawei users in Singapore. Partea has been an established home-grown tea joint for two years and we are proud to be working with a brand that sets itself apart from others and shares a mutual commitment with us in delivering meaningful experiences for our customers."

Huawei has been leading the technology industry for the past few years and we believe that the brand is here to stay. The collaboration is timely and Partea is here to celebrate this special occasion and moments with our customers."
