Our Story
Hi all! Adaeze here, welcome to proVpac. The name proVpac (proV meaning provisions) was inspired from my boarding school days in Nigeria. Provisions are groceries like cereal, sugar, cookies, crackers and juice etc. that boarding school students like myself took with us to school for sustenance throughout the semester because school meals were simply not enough. proVpac was created in September 2018 with the same goal in mind, to offer quality care packages that college students would love and be encouraged by during their tough semester.
I also created proVpac to make college students feel at home while they’re away from home. Many college students have gone through a period of homesickness, especially first year college students, it’s hard enough trying to adjust to a new phase of life. I created proVpac to make this transition smoother.
