Help<strong>in</strong>g consumers lead healthier lives<br />

<strong>Nestlé</strong> works with partners to promote balanced diets <strong>and</strong><br />

regular physical activity to ensure people have the support<br />

they need to live healthier lives. We communicate the<br />

importance of diet <strong>and</strong> exercise <strong>in</strong> achiev<strong>in</strong>g or ma<strong>in</strong>ta<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g<br />

health <strong>and</strong> wellbe<strong>in</strong>g. We <strong>in</strong>clude healthy hydration, eat<strong>in</strong>g<br />

whole gra<strong>in</strong>s, fruit <strong>and</strong> vegetables, <strong>and</strong> daily activity as part<br />

of <strong>our</strong> core recommendations.<br />

Support for the elderly <strong>in</strong> Japan<br />

Our support for physical activity is not solely focused on<br />

children. We also strive to support older family members <strong>and</strong><br />

help them rema<strong>in</strong> active as they age. <strong>Nestlé</strong> Japan, which<br />

began the Kobe Genki! Iki-Iki!! project together with the Kobe<br />

City Government <strong>in</strong> 2013, seeks to improve the quality of life of<br />

the elderly population <strong>and</strong> prevent the need for nurs<strong>in</strong>g care,<br />

by enc<strong>our</strong>ag<strong>in</strong>g them to walk short distances to a café where<br />

they can chat.<br />

<strong>Nestlé</strong> Japan is support<strong>in</strong>g this <strong>in</strong>itiative by provid<strong>in</strong>g<br />

Nescafé Gold Blend barista mach<strong>in</strong>es for designated meet<strong>in</strong>g<br />

places <strong>in</strong> the community. They also provide <strong>in</strong>structors to talk<br />

to the elderly about nutrition <strong>and</strong> teach them simple exercises<br />

that can be practised at home. The project is currently<br />

explor<strong>in</strong>g opportunities to exp<strong>and</strong> to other cities.<br />

Help<strong>in</strong>g people reduce their salt<br />

<strong>in</strong>take <strong>in</strong> Central <strong>and</strong> West Africa<br />

<strong>Nestlé</strong> is committed to boost<strong>in</strong>g<br />

healthy diets <strong>and</strong> lifestyles to help<br />

people achieve <strong>and</strong> ma<strong>in</strong>ta<strong>in</strong> a<br />

healthy body weight <strong>in</strong>to adulthood<br />

by promot<strong>in</strong>g the importance of a<br />

balanced diet <strong>and</strong> regular physical<br />

activity. Our latest Healthy Liv<strong>in</strong>g<br />

Africa campaign, launched <strong>in</strong> <strong>2015</strong> <strong>in</strong><br />

Central <strong>and</strong> West Africa (CWAR), supports <strong>our</strong> nutrition, health<br />

<strong>and</strong> wellness strategy to enc<strong>our</strong>age people <strong>and</strong> their families to<br />

make healthier <strong>and</strong> balanced lifestyle choices.<br />

The campaign, which was promoted through the <strong>Nestlé</strong><br />

CWAR website <strong>and</strong> across social media channels, enc<strong>our</strong>aged<br />

consumers to eat less salt. Each week, a different theme<br />

focused on practical tips on how to reduce salt by mak<strong>in</strong>g<br />

simple <strong>and</strong> healthy lifestyle choices. People across the region<br />

were <strong>in</strong>spired to cook with less salt, discover lower salt<br />

recipes, make smarter shopp<strong>in</strong>g choices <strong>and</strong> taste food before<br />

season<strong>in</strong>g.<br />

The campaign reached more than 11 million people via the<br />

<strong>Nestlé</strong> <strong>and</strong> CWAR Facebook account <strong>and</strong> on the <strong>Nestlé</strong> CWAR<br />

Twitter feed through the use of messages, visuals <strong>and</strong> hashtags,<br />

such as #DidYouKnow <strong>and</strong> #HealthyLiv<strong>in</strong>gAfrica. Posts were<br />

also promoted <strong>in</strong> both English <strong>and</strong> French to help extend its<br />

reach, achiev<strong>in</strong>g thous<strong>and</strong>s of likes, shares <strong>and</strong> comments.<br />

Similar digital campaigns on other healthy tips <strong>and</strong> good eat<strong>in</strong>g<br />

habits led by <strong>Nestlé</strong> CWAR will be rolled out <strong>in</strong> 2016.<br />
