2 Nestlé’s History 1866-1905 -The key factor which drove the early history of the enterprise that would become The Nestlé Company was Henri Nestlé's search for a healthy, economical alternative to breastfeeding for mothers who could not feed their infants at the breast. Nestlé's first customer was a premature infant who could tolerate neither his mother's milk nor any of the conventional substitutes, and had been given up for lost by local physicians. People quickly recognized the value of the new product. 1905-1918-By the early 1900s, the Company was operating factories in the United States, Britain, Germany and Spain. In 1904, Nestlé added chocolate to its range of food products after reaching an agreement with the Swiss General Chocolate Company. 1918-1938 - The end of World War I brought with it a crisis for Nestlé. Government contracts dried up following the cessation of hostilities, and civilian consumers who had grown accustomed to condensed and powdered milk during the war switched back to fresh milk when it became available again. 1938-1944 -The effects of the onset of World War II were felt immediately by Nestlé. Profits dropped from $20 million in 1938 to $6 million in 1939. 1944-1975 - The close of World War II marked the beginning of the most dynamic phase of Nestlé's history. Throughout this period, Nestlé's growth was based on its policy of diversifying within the food sector to meet the needs of consumers. Finally, Nestlé management reached the decision to diversify for the first time outside the food industry. In 1974, the Company became a major shareholder in L'Oréal, one of the world's leading makers of cosmetics.

Benefiting local economies -“Investments have to be good for the country as well as good for the company.“ This has been a fundamental Nestlé belief since the start of the company. Nestlé typically starts operations in developing countries with dairy products and, as a result, operates as a kind of development agency to enable local farmers to create a modern dairy industry. The best way of doing business is investing in the skills of people in each country, creating long term relationships of trust with employees, suppliers, business partners, governments, and society as a whole.
