New Delhi, Delhi, India:  On the occasion of International Women's Day, Mars Wrigley India partnered with Smile Foundation to conduct workshops to impart nutritional knowledge to women.
 
The workshops, which were conducted across Chennai, Hyderabad, Pune, Bengaluru and Mumbai, featured nutritionists training women on concepts of healthy eating, dietary sources of essential nutrients, nutritious food items and the importance of nutrients as per the stages of life.
