Danone, a leading multi-local food and beverage company building on health-focused and fast-growing categories, and Shopee, a leading e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia and Taiwan, launches the first Regional Brand Day, "Our Health, My Choice," on Shopee Mall to provide consumers in the region access to Danone's full Specialized Nutrition (SN) portfolio for the whole family.
The SN portfolio includes core milk products for children, convenient cereal bars for pregnant women and lactating mothers, and adult nutrition for healthy aging.
With more people going online to shop for health products, the collaboration aims to support more families to make informed nutrition choices and discover products that support their health and nutrition needs.
In line with its mission to bring health through food to as many people as possible, Danone ensures that its product portfolio provides the right nutrition across age groups with scientifically proven nutrients.
In the Philippines, malnutrition remains one of the leading causes of child deaths. According to a Unicef report in 2014, 95 Filipino children die from malnutrition every day while 27 out of 1,000 children do not get past their fifth birthday. A third of Filipino children are stunted or too short for their age - causing them to fail to grow and develop to full potential.
A 2019 study by the Food and Nutrition Research Institute stated the current chronic malnutrition rate among Filipino children aged 0 to 2 was at 26.2 percent, the highest in 10 years.
