Nestlé

There are few kitchens in America that do not contain at least one product manufactured by the Nestlé Company. Headquartered in Vevey, Switzerland, Nestlé is the largest food company in the world, with almost five hundred manufacturing plants worldwide. The company has had a presence in North America since 1900, when Nestlé opened its first factory in the United States. Nestlé’s products are distributed under hundreds of brand names and include Crosse and Blackwell preserves, Stouffer’s frozen foods, Poland Springs bottled water, Libby’s fruit juices, Carnation Instant Breakfast, and Maggi bouillon cubes.
