Nestlé Singapore (Pte) Ltd is a wholly owned subsidiary of Nestlé SA, the world's largest food company. Headquartered in Vevey, Switzerland, Nestlé employs 253,000 people (320 staff in Nestlé Singapore) in more than 500 factories and offices in 80 countries around the world. Nestlé's brands are household names in Singapore, these include NESCAFÈ, MILO, MAGGI, NESPRAY, MÖVENPICK, PERRIER, KIT KAT, POLO, PURINA and dozens of other market leaders in their product categories.
As the world's leading food company, Nestlé is dedicated to making it easier for consumers to improve wellness through its products and information programmes. This means a commitment to sharing information and producing foods that not only offer pleasure and convenience, but also nutritional benefits. That is why Nestlé works very closely with Health Promotion Board to develop Healthier Choice' products and jointly conduct healthy lifestyle programmes. After all it is widely understood that a balanced diet is vital for good physical and mental health and that good health fosters an improved sense of well being; when we feel healthy, life seems better!
We have always been committed to placing quality foods and beverages in the context of good diets, helping consumers to get from life the best it has to offer. Hence the four simple words "Good Food, Good Life" to communicate the importance of food and the pleasure it brings to people.
Nestlé started its operation in Singapore in 1912, and has since been building on its success, largely as a result of its operating principles. These seek primarily to:
- Offer the Singapore consumers the highest quality food products
- Utilise the most up-to-date technology and its accumulated scientific expertise in the manufacture of products
- Fulfil its broad responsibility as a corporate citizen, by participating in community and social projects that contribute to the development of the nation.
Over the years it has been present in Singapore, Nestlé has earned the trust of Singaporeans for being a food manufacturer with the highest quality standards. The Company has always emphasised the importance of research, technology, processing know-how, quality and overall hygiene in food processing, with special emphasis being given to hygiene and regular checks for all Nestlé factory staff and food handlers, including its sampling staff. Stringent controls are also carried out in all raw materials, which are carefully analysed and pre-tested before use.
| Nestlé has also consistently worked towards the best possible corporate citizenship in Singapore. Nestlé frequently participates in and actively supports community projects and activities for the promotion of goodwill and healthy social development. Nestlé's involvement in sports has also been extensive and the Company intends to continue to play leading role in the development and advancement of sports in the country. |

Nestlé also has the unflagging support, understanding and confidence of its distributors and retail outlets, some of whom have for generations helped to market Nestlé products, and whom Nestlé rightfully considers as partners in progress.
It is therefore fair to say that the most important link in the Nestlé success story is the trust and loyalty of consumers, staff, distributors and business partners, throughout its years of contribution to Singapore.
