Miss Kitty to light up CB Foods PAN 2025 Grand Finals
For many years, media personality Khadine “Miss Kitty” Hylton Wilkinson has been at the heart of the CB Foods PAN Chicken Competition. She has served as host, bringing her signature energy to a stage that continues to celebrate Jamaica’s food, culture, and community.
“I love the growth of PAN over the years, and I love the fact that I am a part of a product that changes the lives of the PAN chicken men and women across the island. It has been wonderful,” said Miss Kitty.
She continued: “Jerk flavour is indigenous to Jamaica, and to see CB Foods conceptualise PAN is amazing because they add a new element each time the competition is held. This is an event that brings people together — the audience, the PAN chicken vendors. Patrons get to experience top-calibre artistes for free and, most of all, the children are not left out of the mix, because so much is there to entertain them.”
Miss Kitty will return to host the PAN 2025 Grand Finals on Sunday, August 31 at Jamaica College, alongside Dufton “Duffy” Shepherd.
Over 20 PAN chicken men and women, who advanced through two developmental workshops, will compete for the coveted title of CB Foods PAN Chicken Champion and a $1 million cash prize.
New this year is the Copperwood PAN Pork Competition, featuring past PAN finalist battling for fresh glory and attractive prizes.
Nicole Hall, senior commercial marketing manager at CB Foods, praised Miss Kitty’s contribution.
“Miss Kitty… engages the patrons with unmatched energy and connects deeply with our PAN partners through fun, creative activities that bring the brands to life. At CB Foods, we value being lively, passionate, creative, and trusted, qualities Miss Kitty embodies wholeheartedly. Her ability to engage, relate, and pull the fun out of people is a special gift. Her love for Jamaica is real, and so is her talent as a host, which is why she has become such an integral part of the PAN journey and the CB Foods family,” said Hall.
Originally from the Duhaney Park area, Miss Kitty has worked at several media entities and hosted many events and stage shows.
“I think that entertainment found me. I never had it on my focus, but I found that I loved it. I’ve always been an advocate, and I’m always the voice of the disenfranchised,” she says proudly.
PAN 2025 Grand Finals promises great food, top-tier entertainment, family fun, and unforgettable vibes.
