HISTORY

NESTLÉ (Vevey, Switzerland) was founded in 1866 by Henri Nestlé and today is the world's leading nutrition, health and wellness company. In Vevey, Switzerland, the founder Henri Nestlé, a German pharmacist, launched his Farine lactée, a combination of cow’s milk, wheat flour and sugar, saving the life of a neighbour’s child. Nutrition has been the cornerstone of the company. They employ around 280.000 people and they have many factories or operations in almost every country in the world. 

“Henri Nestlé, himself an immigrant from Germany, was instrumental in turning his Company towards international expansion from the very start. We owe more than our name, our logo and our first infant-food product to our founder. Henri Nestlé embodied many of the key attitudes and values that form part and parcel of our corporate culture: pragmatism, flexibility, the willingness to learn, an open mind and respect for other people and cultures.” Peter Brabeck-Letmathe, Nestlé Chairma.

Their objective is to be the leader in Nutrition Health and Wellness. The company strategy is driven by several fundamental principles.  NESTLÉ works to develop innovation and renovation while maintaining a balance in geographic activities and product lines. The long term potential is never sacrificed for short-term performance. The priority of the Company is to provide the best and most relevant products to people, wherever you are, whatever their lives.
