global standards and is committed to a long-term
sustainable growth and shareholder satisfaction. The

of India.
Nestle has been a partner in
India's growth for the past nine decades. The company
supports various community projects in education, health
and welfare and infrastructure around its factories. In
Moga, Punjab, for example, Nestle invested substantially
to establish milk collection centres with cooling tanks,
milking machines and provided farmers with training in
breeding and feeding practices to increase the yield of
their herd. This has helped to improve the quality of milk
produced in the region which in turn helped local farmers
increase their incomes. The company has facilitated
various initiatives to provide clean drinking water for
students of local schools around its factories and also
organises projects with the Indian Red Cross which include
blood bank services, ambulance services, immunisation and
health awareness.
In Calcutta, Nestle India
assists SHIS, a social organisation working in the field
of rural development in over 1200 villages in the state of
West Bengal. The company also provides scholarships to
deserving students in some schools and awards the Nestle
scholarships for young business managers in six different
management institutes.
