One year later, Henri Nestl, a trained pharmacist, launched one of the worlds first prepared infant cereals Farine lacte in Vevey, Switzerland.Today, we employ around 328,000 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 89.5 billion in 2016.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.
