About Nestlé AG

Nestlé AG is a global leader in food and beverages, listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange (SMI/SPI) in Switzerland. Founded in 1866 in Vevey by Henri Nestlé, the company grew from its original nutrition heritage into one of the world’s most diversified consumer staples groups. Its global headquarters remain in Vevey, at Avenue Nestlé 55, 1800 Vevey, Switzerland.

Its best-known brands include Nescafé, Nespresso, KitKat, Maggi, Milo and Purina, reflecting a broad presence across categories that benefit from recurring demand and strong brand loyalty. Nestlé sells products in 185 countries and operates a very large manufacturing footprint, with 335 factories in 75 countries, supporting deep local market penetration and supply-chain resilience.

Its scale, brand equity, distribution reach and R&D capabilities provide structural advantages in coffee, infant and medical nutrition, pet care and confectionery. The group also continues to invest in innovation, with a worldwide R&D network and a major research presence in Switzerland, helping it respond to consumer trends around health, convenience and premiumisation.

In its full-year 2025 results released in February 2026, Nestlé reported organic growth of 3.5%, sales of CHF 89.49 billion and an underlying trading operating profit margin of 16.1%. Management also outlined a sharper portfolio structure built around four core businesses, with Nutrition further integrated and greater emphasis placed on the strongest brands. The company said it was in advanced negotiations to sell its remaining ice cream business to Froneri and is stepping up efficiency and cost-reduction initiatives. For international equity investors, Nestlé combines defensive characteristics, global scale and exposure to secular consumer trends, while maintaining a strong Swiss identity and a blue-chip listing on the SIX Swiss Exchange (SMI/SPI) in Switzerland.
