13. Nestlé describes itself as a food, nutrition,
health, and wellness company.
Recently they created Nestlé Nutrition, a
global business organization designed to
strengthen the focus on their core nutrition
business.
They believe strengthening their leadership
in this market is the key element of their
corporate strategy.
14. In order to reinforce their competitive
advantage in this area, Nestlé created
Nestlé Nutrition as an autonomous global
business unit within the organization, and
charged it with the operational and profit
and loss responsibility for the claim-based
business of Infant Nutrition, HealthCare
Nutrition, and Performance Nutrition.
15. The Corporate Wellness Unit was
designed to integrate nutritional value-
added in their food and beverage
businesses.
This unit is responsible for coordinating
horizontal, cross-business projects that
address current customer concerns as well
as anticipating future consumer trends.
16. Nestlé’s competitive strategies
are associated mainly with foreign direct
investment in dairy and other food
businesses. Nestlé aims to balance sales
between low risk but low growth countries
of the developed world and high risk and
potentially high growth markets of Africa
and Latin America.
17. When operating in a developed market,
Nestlé strives to grow and gain economies
of scale through foreign direct investment in
big companies.
In the developing markets, Nestlé grows by
manipulating ingredients or processing
technology for local conditions, and employ
the appropriate brand.
18. Another strategy that has been successful
for Nestlé involves striking strategic
partnerships with other large companies. In
the early 1990s, Nestlé entered into an
alliance with Coca Cola in ready-to-drink
teas and coffees in order to benefit from
Coca Cola’s worldwide bottling system and
expertise in prepared beverages.
19. In Asia, Nestlé’s strategy has
been to acquire local companies in order to
form a group of autonomous regional
managers who know more about the culture
of the local markets than Americans or
Europeans.
Nestlé’s strong cash flow and comfortable
debt-equity ratio leave it with ample muscle
for takeovers.
