Nestlé will outline the scale of its investment in and presence on the African continent; explaining its Creating Shared Value approach to simultaneous generation of value for shareholders and the societies it serves. The presentation will look at how Nestlé translates its societal engagements into public commitments; and how these in turn relate to the Sustainable Development Goals. After a brief overview of global performance to date and how Nestlé reports back to stakeholders, the presentation will zero in on challenges faced by African stakeholders in two key areas where Nestlé is active – namely Nutrition and Rural Development – and provide specific examples of how Nestlé aims to create positive change.
