Speaking at the launch, Philomena Tan, the Managing Director of Nestle Ghana, said the health and wellness program instituted is going to be a weekly activity geared towards improving upon the fitness of the staff.
“At the beginning of this month, we spoke about bringing awareness of large values of nutrition and wellness, so you have seen that by the beginning of this week we have picked up already by having fruits and I hope all of you have gotten your apples and you have been practicing heavy multi-fruit as well," she said.
“I hope you are all going to be hydrated in all activities. I understand some of you are still fasting because it is the month of Ramadan. I apologize for that but thank you for joining us here as well."

She also encouraged all the staff to get involved in making it a success.
“I can see the crowd today because of some special guest we have but I am hoping that every Thursday we will have a good number of people come and exercise because that will balance with what we eat and what must be expanded as energy as well."
What we have said is that an active employee, an active group of workers means a healthy lifestyle for everybody and also active workforce for the company.
