SPAR steps up to the plate, joining hands with customers to feed the nation.<\/p>\n

While COVID-19 is still an ever-present threat to our health and wellbeing, that\u2019s not the only battle our nation is facing. South Africans suffer with many dietary and lifestyle-related diseases, like hypertension and Type 2 diabetes, as well as the very real issue of malnourishment due to poverty. During National Nutrition Week 2021 (from the 9th to the 15th of October), we\u2019re being encouraged to eat more vegetables and fruit every day to stay healthy, but with so many families living below the breadline, access to fresh fruit and vegetables is not always possible.<\/p>\n

Bhavna Sanker, SPAR BRAND Promotions and Advertising Manager says, \u201cSPAR has a culture of caring \u2013 we\u2019re not in the grocery business, we\u2019re in the people business. Our customers are part of our SPAR family and family deserve the best, so that\u2019s why we\u2019ve stepped up to the plate this National Nutrition Week with our \u2018One 4 You, One 4 Me\u2019 campaign. During October, customers can purchase any two SPAR Mageu 1L products for just R22, and then pop one carton into the trolley at the front of every store. At the end of the campaign, stores will give all donated stock to local charities in need of this nutritious product. In addition, SPAR will donate R1.50 for every carton sold during this campaign period to Operation Hunger.\u201d<\/p>\n

Of all the grocery products to choose from, why did SPAR select Mageu for this campaign? Sanker says, \u201cQuite simply, it\u2019s a ready-to-drink maize beverage (a drinkable porridge) that\u2019s nut, soya and egg-free, making it a good option for anyone with food allergies. It can be enjoyed at room temperature or chilled, and the variety of minerals (electrolytic iron and zinc oxide) and vitamins (A, B1, B2, B3, B6 and B9) contained in the product make it really nutritious. Being very low in sodium, with no artificial sweeteners, it\u2019s a healthy source of energy.\u201d<\/p>\n

SPAR Mageu is available in SPAR stores nationwide, in the chilled beverage department. It\u2019s available in 500ml, 1L and 2L sizes, in the following varieties: Amabele (sorghum); Pineapple; Banana; Creamy; and Strawberry.<\/p>\n

\u201cSPAR strives to do good every day, and our \u2018One 4 You, One for Me\u2019 campaign is just one of the many ways we are joining hands with our customers to impact those most in need, right on our doorsteps. Please join us in making a difference in our communities!\u201d Sanker concludes.<\/p>\n
