Maggi brand ‘Cooking Caravans’ are travelling through Cameroon, Côte d’Ivoire and Nigeria, educating people about balanced diets, micronutrient deficiency and the importance of culinary hygiene.

According to Nestlé, the programme also aims to encourage cooking at home.There are five caravans on the road staffed by a team of up to ten Maggi employees and contractors.

They travel to towns and cities week-by-week promoting activities tailored to each country.

These include interactive cooking demonstrations, women’s forums, group discussions, and presentations on micronutrient fortification.
