Global retail major Walmart on Tuesday announced the launch of Vriddhi Cares, to extend COVID-19 support to MSME employees and their family members in the country.

Under this, the company will help micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) to support employees and their family members with telecare services and health advice, according to a statement.

It will also provide access to pandemic-related business advice and resources, the statement added.

Walmart has tied up with non-governmental organisation Swasti to provide free telecare services that offer remote access to doctors, nurses and other healthcare workers via phone under Vriddhi Cares.
