About Nestlé Global
As the world's leading food and beverage company, our goal is straightforward: harnessing the potential of food to improve quality of life for all, now and in the years ahead. To achieve this, we work with dedication and a commitment to excellence, providing goods and services suited to every stage of life, throughout the day, enabling individuals to look after themselves and their loved ones. Our company culture is grounded in values centered on respect: respect for ourselves, respect for others, respect for diversity, and respect for the future. Our history dates back to 1866, when the Anglo-Swiss Condensed Milk Company opened the first European condensed milk factory in Cham, Switzerland. A year later, in Vevey, Switzerland, Henri Nestlé, a trained pharmacist, introduced one of the world’s first prepared infant cereals, ‘Farine lactée’. Currently, we have around 273,000 employees and operate factories or facilities in nearly every country worldwide. With our headquarters still located in the Swiss town of Vevey, our sales reached CHF 84.3 billion in 2020. Our range encompasses nearly every food and beverage category—delivering products and services for all life stages, at every moment of the day, assisting people in managing their own and their families' well-being.
