Nestlé SA posted 80 LinkedIn updates from May 15 to May 22, 2025. The company's posts covered a wide range of topics, including sustainability initiatives, talent development, product innovations, and corporate social responsibility. Let's explore the key areas of focus for Nestlé during this period.
Sustainability and Environmental Initiatives
Nestlé demonstrated a strong commitment to sustainability and environmental protection across various regions. In Spain, the company highlighted its efforts in regenerative agriculture, collaborating with Fundación Global Nature on a project in Castilla y León for infant cereals. Currently, 80% of the infant cereals produced in that region come from regenerative agriculture practices. Additionally, Nestlé's Solís Responsible program, in partnership with Conesa Group, ensures that all tomatoes used in their sauces come from local crops in Extremadura, applying regenerative agriculture practices.
In Portugal, Nestlé launched the 5th edition of the Nestum - "Together for the Bees" initiative, donating over 300 beehives and expanding the Beekeeping Academy, which has already trained 50 new beekeepers. Over the past five years, they've donated 1,600 beehives, potentially representing more than 100 million new bees in the ecosystem.
The company also showcased its efforts in circular economy practices. In Spain, Nestlé is giving a second life to coffee grounds, using them as an energy source along with wood chips from local forests in their second coffee factory in Girona. This €22 million investment allows them to reduce 36,000 tons of CO₂e per year, revalue 100% of coffee grounds, and cover 80% of the necessary steam with renewable sources.
