General Mills – Educating on Fibre

21 February 2024

In 2023, General Mills launched two key educational campaigns to highlight the benefits of fibre for employees, and consumers.  

Topics

In May General Mills hosted a well-attended and external dietician-led employee education session on fibre; what it is and what it does. This included product ranking, Q&A, and practical tips to increase fibre in our diets. This was followed with an internal video from the expert dietician summarising the key messages so a wider group of our employees could benefit.

We then supported the launch of a UK consumer survey, to better understand their knowledge and habits around fibre. Our partner dietician led a scientific report, gathering this consumer data, alongside a comprehensive literature review, that highlighted the benefits of fibre for the British population. This report has been disseminated to mainstream and health-forward media, to help increase awareness on the benefits of fibre for Fibre February.
