Mars Wrigley: double skilled migration now

Mars Wrigley Australia, the manufacturer of Pods, Milky Way and Snickers bars, has called on the government to double the number of skilled immigrants it plans to let into the country, with a heavy focus on regional Australia.

General manager Andrew Leakey told The Australian Financial Review that Mars Wrigley Australia needs more regional staff with the appropriate skills in management, computer skills, and science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) skills.
