Nestle’s history begins in 1866, with the foundation of the Anglo-Swiss Condensed Milk Company. Henri Nestlé develops a breakthrough infant food in 1867, and in 1905 the company he founded merges with Anglo-Swiss, to form what is now known as the Nestlé Group. During this period cities grow and railways and steamships bring down commodity costs, spurring international trade in consumer goods.
Nestle’s global business portfolio includes a wide range of brands from food and beverages to health care nutrition, skin health and petcare.
Nestle aim to offer a portfolio of products that evolve with consumer needs, offer good nutrition and delight the senses, contributing to healthier, balanced lives and a healthier planet. This guides the choices we make today and shapes the portfolio for tomorrow – whether through product evolution, innovation, acquisition or partnerships.
