Mars Food & Nutrition’s Post

🚨 New product alert!!! 🚨 We are excited to launch the first products to spearhead our brand-new cupboard ready meal range in the UK, marking the start of a multi-year innovation pipeline for Ben’s Original and Dolmio. Introducing Ben’s Original™ Lunch Bowls and Ben’s Original™ Favourites, launching exclusively in Tesco ahead of a wider roll out later this year. The new ranges support our mission to enable healthier and more flavourful eating to become part of people’s daily lives and builds on recent award-winning innovation including Ben’s Original™ Plant Powered, and Ben's Original™ One Pan Creations. This is alongside our acquisition of fast-growing trailblazing businesses such as Kevin’s Natural Foods, a nutritious meal company helping to empower even the busiest people to eat clean without sacrificing flavour. #readymeals #innovation #betterfoodtoday

It’s #NationalVolunteersWeek in Australia, and last week we surprised over 70 Foodbank Australia volunteers with a #Dolmio Spaghetti Bolognese lunch to say thank you for everything they do. Our Foodbank Collaborative Supply Program has been running for over four years – and in 2024 will help to provide nearly 1 million meals using Dolmio pasta sauce. None of this would reach the communities where it is needed without Foodbank’s amazing volunteers – so please join us in celebrating them!  #BetterFoodToday #ABetterWorldTomorrow #FoodbankPartner
