Nestlé encourages Aussie workers to share a cup of coffee and ask, R U OK? 

 

Nestle Professional has entered into a three-year partnership with public health promotion charity, R U OK?, coming on board as the official ‘cuppa’ partner. 

 

The collaboration is designed to encourage Australians to check in with their loved ones or colleagues over a cup of Nescafé coffee and use these moments of connection to ask the question, ‘are you OK?’. 

 

To celebrate the partnership and highlight next week’s R U OK? Week, Nestlé Professional has unveiled a limited-edition 1kg tin of Nescafé Blend 43. 

 

Made in Gympie, Queensland, the bold yellow tin is designed to prompt important conversations in the workplace. 

 

Nestlé Professional general manager Kristina Czepl said: “Whether it’s in the office kitchen, staff breakroom or facilities site, Nestlé Professional has a legacy of bringing Aussie workers together over a cup of Nescafé Blend 43 coffee. 

 

“Through our partnership with R U OK? we want to inspire people to use these moments of connection to simply ask the question, ‘are you OK?’, and start a meaningful conversation that could change a life.”

 

 According to R U OK? research , in the past month, a quarter of respondents in full-time work have opened up to a colleague about something that was troubling them. 

 

The limited-edition R U OK?  Nescafé Blend 43 1kg tins are available to purchase from wholesale office and foodservice distributors, including Bidfood, NAFDA, Countrywide, PFD, Campbells, Winc and Blackwoods (RRP $58).
