Background on BCB’s Ukraine Response: In the wake of the Ukraine crisis, BCB International acted swiftly and decisively to provide crucial support to those in need. Through the provision of essential equipment such as ballistics, sleeping gear, medical kits, cooking equipment, tactical gear, and our own FireDragon Fuel, we were able to make a meaningful impact in Ukraine. In addition to supplying directly to Ukraine using our own extensive transport network, we also partnered with key organisations such as Ukrainian charities, the International Committee of the Red Cross, and the United Nations to ensure that our aid reached those who needed it most.
Our commitment to Ukraine has not wavered, and we continue to offer life-saving equipment and support to every day. As part of our dedication to the cause, we have also employed several Ukrainian refugees to assist us in our efforts, their input and bravery is very much appreciated. At BCB International, we understand the urgency of the situation in Ukraine and are proud to play our part in providing vital assistance and support to those affected by this crisis.
