As part of its efforts to make good nutrition affordable and accessible to those who need it most, Nestlé is introducing Bear Brand Milk N’ Soy, a powdered milk and soy drink for school-age children, in the Philippines.
Nearly three billion people globally cannot afford a healthy diet, and many do not have access to good nutrition. Because school-age children are in a phase of significant growth and mental development, they need a healthy, well-balanced diet that includes proteins, vitamins and minerals from sources such as grains, vegetables, fruits and dairy.
"We have created Bear Brand Milk N’ Soy to meet the specific nutritional requirements and taste preferences of school-age children and have made it affordable for Filipino households," said Serena Aboutboul, Head of the Nutrition Strategic Business Unit. "This great-tasting new drink further expands the trusted Bear Brand range in the Philippines, which already delivers millions of servings of micronutrient-fortified milk drinks to children each day. We believe that there is significant growth potential in expanding the benefits of Bear Brand to older children in their school-going years." |
