“We feel that Quaker has a great opportunity as a market leader in health and wellness to leverage our product portfolio under one powerful platform.”
The company will launch a marketing and advertising campaign with the theme “go humans go”. It aims to reinforce that wholegrain oats are a key Quaker ingredient that “help power the bodies and minds of humans and inspires people to be their best”.
