As the world’s largest food and beverage company, we are driven by a simple aim: unlocking the power of food to enhance quality of life for everyone today and for generations to come. To deliver on this, we serve with passion and a spirit of excellence, offering products and services for all stages of life, every moment of the day, helping people care for themselves and their families. Our culture is based on our values rooted in respect: respect for ourselves, respect for others, respect for diversity, and respect for the future.
We can trace our origin back to 1866, when the first European condensed milk factory was opened in Cham, Switzerland, by the Anglo-Swiss Condensed Milk Company. One year later, Henri Nestlé, a trained pharmacist, launched one of the world’s first prepared infant cereals ‘Farine lactée’ in Vevey, Switzerland.
Today, we employ around 273,000 people and have factories or operations in almost every country in the world. With our headquarters still based in the Swiss town of Vevey, we had sales of CHF 84.3 billion in 2020.
Our portfolio covers almost every food and beverage category, offering products and services for all stages of life, every moment of the day, helping people care for themselves and their families.

We have mapped our material issues against the SDGs to help us understand where we can have the biggest impact. Here are some examples.
Nestlé's culture is built on connection and collaboration; our leaders visit and engage with operations everywhere. We have formal reporting and are no strangers to a PowerPoint deck, but at all levels, we also go straight to the field to learn on the ground. That's something I expect of my team and of myself. And that's how (pre-COVID) I was able to spend time in Côte d'Ivoire, Ghana, and Nigeria learning the on-the-ground details of our cocoa community support.
Our efforts over many years have helped, but more is needed. We are launching a holistic approach to getting kids in school, accelerating farmer income and supporting families. We expect our new initiative to triple our annual investment in cocoa sustainability, to more than USD 1 billion over the next decade. More importantly, our fresh approaches are designed to make lasting, positive changes. We believe these three key criteria for our program can help transform cocoa farming.
