HISTORY

Nestl was founded in 1867 on the shores of Lake Geneva in Vevey, Switzerland and its first product was Farine Lacte Nestl, an infant cereal specially formulated by Henri Nestl to provide and improve infant nutrition. From its first historic merger with the Anglo-Swiss Condensed Milk Company in 1905, Nestl has grown to become the worlds largest and most diversified food Company, and is about twice the size of its nearest competitor in the food and beverages sector. . Today, it is not only the central element of Nestls corporate identity but serves to define the Companys products, responsibilities, business practices, ethics and goals
