Company Snapshot:
Nestlé, the world's largest food company, is one of the most multinational of companies. With more than 450 manufacturing facilities in over 80 countries spread over six continents, the company seems determined to feed the entire human race. It likes to call itself the “world’s leading nutrition, health and wellness company.” It is also one of the world’s most controversial corporations. For more than two decades the Nestlé name was widely associated with a controversy, including a longstanding boycott, over its marketing of infant formula in poor countries.
