Nestlé South Africa has launched its latest immersive campaign Choose Wellness, Choose Nestlé, which aims to empower consumers to make informed choices regarding their health and wellness.
Focusing on elements of wellness has been a consistent emphasis for Nestlé over the years and forms part of its vision to position itself as the world’s leading nutrition, health and wellness company.
Through this campaign, Nestlé will unpack and introduce the fundamental building blocks of wellness within three core areas – Eat Smarter, Move More, Live Better – into the daily lives of South African consumers.
Naazneen Sali-Ameen, Nutrition, Health and Wellness Manager at Nestlé South Africa says, “This campaign was conceptualised to help South Africa – through knowledge sharing – to combat its current high rates of obesity, undernutrition and micronutrient deficiencies.”
‘’Nestlé is constantly evolving as a company and innovating its products to better suit the lifestyles of modern consumers – from fortified beverages to informative packaging. Our focus this year is to highlight these achievements while educating South Africans about the importance of achieving overall wellness and how it can be obtained through eating balanced meals and being more active which leads to an improved lifestyle.”
To ensure a strong, sustainable foundation is built under all three of the pillars – Eat Smarter, Move More, Live Better – Nestlé plans to activate each segment in a staggered and easy-to-digest approach throughout 2017. Each segment will build on the one before, tackling the core issues that South African consumers face, in an engaging and relevant manner.
The comprehensive campaign kicks off with promotions which will take place in stores around the country from 1 March to 30 April, while interactive and educational activations will take place over select weekends. The in-store mechanic also offers consumers the chance to win a share of R500 000 worth of groceries from a retailer of their choice when buying any participating Nestlé product.
Informative radio and digital elements will also be used to expand the campaign messaging and discussion into local communities. To further engage, a SMS/USSD element has also been developed as a direct messaging platform to share health and wellness tips.
