Overview

Nestlé S.A., headquartered in Vevey, Switzerland, is the world’s largest manufacturer of packaged food and beverage products. It sells a broad range of items, including baby food, chocolates, quick-cooking noodles, frozen entrees, ice cream, breakfast cereals, and pet food. The company also produces powdered and liquid beverages, including infant formula, instant coffee, condensed milk, and bottled water, and offers other products through its large number of subsidiaries.

Nestlé’s history can be traced back to two companies founded in Switzerland at about the same time: the Anglo-Swiss Condensed Milk Company in 1866 and Farine Lactée Henri Nestlé in 1867. Farine
Lactée was founded by a German pharmacist, Henri Nestlé, who created a substitute for breast milk he called Farine Lactée. The high rate of infant mortality at that time was caused in part by the
inability of some babies to nurse. Farine Lactée was designed to provide a nutritious substitute for breast milk.

The two rival companies merged in 1905, and this development was a major milestone in establishing the combined company as a multinational powerhouse. Now known by the name of one of the founders, Nestlé had a presence in almost two hundred countries by the 2020s. It's hundreds of factories produce products for thousands of brands, some developed internally, and many others were brought into the company via strategic acquisitions. Some of its best-known brands include Kit Kat chocolate bars, Nescafé coffee, Dreyer’s ice cream, Gerber baby food, and Purina pet foods. Despite its strong profits and international brand recognition, the company has also been criticised for its business practices, environmental record, and tolerance of forced labour in its supply chains.

History

Advances in the science of preserving food in the early nineteenth century led to businesses that implemented new methods to create safe, convenient, and easy-to-transport foods. Condensed milk and infant formula were the first products made by the two rival companies that ultimately merged to form what is now known as Nestlé S.A. Following the merger in 1905, the company opened seven factories across Europe. When World War I broke out in 1914, however, production in Europe became more difficult. Thus, Nestlé decided to buy factories in areas of the world less affected by the war, such as the United States, Latin America, and Australia. While the Great Depression and World War II led to ups and downs for Nestlé, the company generally adapted to the times and prospered. What helped was its introduction of instant coffee, Nescafé, in the late 1930s and instant tea, Nestea, in the early 1940s. Both products were immensely popular.

Merging with and acquiring other companies has historically characterized Nestlé’s business strategy. For example, Alimentana S.A., which made Maggi soups, bouillon, and seasonings merged with Nestlé in 1947. Nestlé continued to acquire other companies in the food business. It began to diversify in 1974 when it purchased a large stake in the cosmetics company L’Oréal, and it continued the process in 1977 by purchasing pharmaceutical company Alcon Laboratories.

Throughout the 1980s and 1990s, Nestlé continued to expand and make major acquisitions. It purchased companies that manufactured milk, chocolate, coffee, frozen food, mineral water, pet food, and other products. In 1991, Nestlé entered into a partnership with the Coca-Cola Company to market Nescafé and other coffee products using Coca-Cola’s worldwide distribution network. Later in the 1990s, the company sought to focus more on food than on the cosmetics and healthcare industries, which had not grown significantly. Peter Brabeck-Letmathe became CEO of Nestlé in 1997, and he initially emphasized internal growth for the company before focusing once again on acquisitions. The company paid $600 million in 2006 to acquire Jenny Craig, Inc., the weight-loss company. The acquisition was not a success, and Nestlé sold Jenny Craig in 2013. In 2007, Nestlé acquired Gerber, the iconic US baby food brand, from Novartis for over $5 billion, further strengthening its position in the baby food market. Three years later, the company bought Kraft Foods’ North American frozen pizza business for over $3 billion.

In January 2018, as the share of sales from the company's US confectionery remained stagnant or in decline in large part due to greater demand for healthier food options, Nestlé sold this part of its business to the Italian company Ferrero for $2.8 billion in favour of focusing more on aspects such as bottled water and pet products. Indeed, by April of that year, the company reported greater profits
from its pet care brands in terms of its US businesses, as American consumers seemed to be investing more money in their pets.

The company continued to adapt to changing market conditions and consumer preferences in the early 2020s. It acquired other brands, particularly those in the health food and supplements sector, including vitamin manufacturer Bountiful Company in 2021 and plant-based food producer Puravida in 2022. Meanwhile, Nestlé also shifted away from some other longstanding parts of its business. For example, in early 2021, Nestlé completed the $4.3 billion sale of its water-bottling operations, including Poland Spring and other regional bottled water brands, to a private equity firm. In 2023, Nestlé continued its strong economic performance, beating first-quarter earnings expectations, yet the company was criticised for achieving this goal through the cost inflation of its products, with prices for the company’s products increasing over 10 per cent.

Impact

By the twenty-first century, Nestlé had become one of the most recognised food brands in the world, offering a diverse selection of products through its brand name and subsidiaries.

A key part of Nestlé’s stated mission is nutrition, health, and wellness. Although many of its products are high in sugar and fat, the company is also developing others that meet consumers’ tastes for healthier, more nutritious food. In early 2015, the company announced that it was planning to remove artificial dyes and flavours from many of its candies. Nestlé also founded its own Institute of Health Sciences, which does nutrition research. The company uses scientific innovations to create new products; an example is a lactose-free infant formula with a probiotic that helps infants with diarrhoea. In 2014, Nestlé announced the creation of Nestlé Skin Health S.A., a subsidiary specialising in scientifically tested dermatology products. Three years later, the company acquired Sweet Earth, a plant-based food manufacturer.

Despite these endeavours, Nestlé has been involved in several controversies throughout its history, including many in the twenty-first century. In the 1970s, the company was criticised for how it marketed infant formula to parents in developing countries. The formula was touted as being more beneficial to infants than breast milk. Advertisements did not stress the importance of preparing the formula with clean water. The product was comparatively expensive for many consumers, some of whom diluted the powder to make it last longer. Nestlé was accused of not educating parents on the proper use of the product, and as a consequence, many newborn babies suffered from malnutrition and the ingestion of polluted water, leading to several deaths.

Furthermore, the Indian government’s food safety agency reported in May 2015 that Nestlé’s popular Maggi noodles contained unsafe levels of lead. The product was pulled from the shelves while an investigation took place. Yet another controversy in 2017 was that Nestlé Waters North America continued bottling water sourced in California, despite the years-long drought in that region. At the time, Nestlé was accused of wasting 30 per cent of the water it drew from California. The company's production of bottled water continued to face criticism into the 2020s amid recurring droughts in parts of the US and concerns about plastic pollution, although Nestlé's sale of most of its bottled water brands in 2021 shifted some of the future responsibility away from the company.

In addition to these scandals, Nestlé's labour practices have also come under scrutiny, particularly those related to the company's cocoa production on its West African plantations. In 2005 the company faced a lawsuit related to the use of child slave labour in its cocoa supply chains, filed by the International Labor Rights Fund on behalf of three Malian children who had worked as enslaved child labourers on cocoa plantations, though Nestlé denied having any "ethical responsibility" for its suppliers' labour practices. Despite mounting criticism and legal pressure, in 2019, Nestlé revealed that it was still unable to certify that all its products were free of child slave labour, and in 2021 was included alongside many other food corporations in a class-action lawsuit from formerly enslaved child labourers in Mali. A federal judge dismissed the lawsuit in 2022. The company faced other labour controversies throughout the early twenty-first century; for example, it was accused of carrying out anti-union activities in Colombia during this time, and in 2015, the company admitted that its seafood supply chains in Thailand included forced labour.
