Our vision for a brighter future
The Nestlé Cocoa Plan
As part of Nestlé's sustainability commitment we have a three pillared scheme of work to ensure that the people, ecosystems and soils we work with are properly cared for and invested in.
We re providing training and resources to help cocoa farmers improve yields and quality of produce. These promote positive agricultural practices and diversified income sources
When women are given more autonomy, communities thrive. We re working to improve gender equality and household revenues by incentivizing greater access to education. This also helps to prevent child labour risks
We re working on making our cocoa supply chain more transparent and traceable, and focusing on moving towards cocoa forest positive actions
The Income Accelerator Program
Launched in 2022, this program takes an innovative family centered approach, incentivizing positive practices and aiming to close the living income gap
Nestlé Sustainable packaging
Our goal is that no packaging ends up in landfills or as litter.
Smart Initiative for Smarties
Smarties was the first global confectionery brand worldwide to switch to recyclable paper packaging
First confectionery brand to achieve a 5* Travel Retail Sustainable Hero Status
Smarties will be removing approximately 250 million plastic packs annually leading to around 400 metric tonnes of plastic packaging saved
