Nestlé commits to reducing its carbon footprint

Nestlé openly affirms its commitment to the sustainable development of its activities. This was confirmed last December by the announcement of the roll-out of a programme to reduce the Group’s carbon footprint. The Swiss food giant will devote 3.2 billion Swiss francs over the next five years to this major undertaking. The objective: to put in place a series of measures to halve its emissions by 2030 and achieve net zero emissions by 2050.

In line with this environmental approach, Nestlé notably plans, as part of a reforestation programme, to plant 20 million trees a year over the next ten years. Another measure: completing the transition to 100% renewable electricity by 2025 in the factories and production sites of the 187 countries where the Group is present.
