Meson Sandwiches champions Puerto Rican heritage as an official ambassador for upcoming Junte Boricua celebration
Meson Sandwiches proudly announces its commitment as an ambassador for the upcoming Junte Boricua celebration, an initiative that’s inviting the Puerto Rican diaspora back to the island to celebrate the island’s culture, heritage and gastronomy during the months of May-August, 2024.
This event aims to create the most significant tourism initiative in Puerto Rico in recent years, and with Meson’s roots originating on the island back in 1972, the fast-casual eatery is honored to support and participate in an event that echoes the rich traditions and flavors that inspire its very own menu. The restaurant chain plans to kick off a series of activations at their Central Florida locations to help amplify awareness of this initiative to the local diaspora.
“Being part of Junte Boricua is not just about sponsorship; it’s about contributing to a once-in-a-lifetime event that goes beyond the ordinary—we’re helping to bring generations of Puerto Ricans back to the country to reconnect with their roots. It’s a very special initiative.” said Felipe Pérez Grajales, president of Meson Sandwiches. “We are honored to be ambassadors of a celebration that encapsulates the essence of our brand—vibrant, flavorful, and deeply connected to the heart of Puerto Rico.”
In an exciting addition to the initiative, Meson Sandwiches is pleased to announce that Jasmine Camacho-Quinn, a distinguished athlete that proudly carries the flag of Puerto Rico in international events, is joining the restaurant chain to enrich this unique celebration.
“Meson Sandwiches’ commitment to Junte Boricua, once again reflects our shared dedication to preserving the richness of our Puerto Rican heritage. I am thrilled to be part of an initiative that connects so many Puerto Rican generations, whether born on the island or not, but of which we all take pride in being a part”, commented Jasmine Camacho-Quinn.
Junte Boricua will serve as the platform to a remarkable series of events designed to warmly welcome the Puerto Rican diaspora back to their roots. These pivotal celebrations are poised to establish the vibrant atmosphere that will resonate across various activities throughout the entire summer season. From cultural showcases to culinary delights and interactive experiences, Junte Boricua aims to create an inclusive and unforgettable experience that reconnects individuals with the essence of Puerto Rico, fostering a sense of unity and celebration that extends beyond the festivities.
“We invite everyone to join us on this incredible journey! Let’s come together to celebrate the unity, culture, and flavors that make Puerto Rico truly unique. Follow Meson Sandwiches on social media for exclusive updates, behind-the-scenes content, and exciting surprises leading up to and during Junte Boricua. Together, let’s make this event an unforgettable experience for all!” concluded Pérez Grajales.
