US confectionery giant Mars has launched a ‘Chocolate Relief’ campaign in a bid to bring “sweet smiles” to millions of Americans.


The Mars Real Chocolate Relief Act will offer consumers full-sized samples of Mars chocolate, product discounts and coupons along with ‘Free Chocolate Fridays’.


Throughout September, Mars will give away around seven million full-size packages of its M&M’s, Snickers, Milky Way, Twix, Dove, and 3 Musketeers chocolates in the US.


Mars will also give away a quarter-of-a- million full-size packages of ‘real’ chocolate on Free Chocolate Fridays.
