Reflecting its commitment to sustainability, Nestlé USA announced this week that all 23 of its factories—spanning confections, dairy, frozen and refrigerated meals, ice cream, baking ingredients and beverages—have achieved zero waste-to-landfill status.
“We are incredibly proud of the effort it took to accomplish this goal,” says Paul Grimwood, chairman and CEO Nestlé USA. “This is an especially noteworthy achievement given the breadth and complexity of our manufacturing operations across a variety of categories. We are committed to working with our employees to ensure our factories remain landfill free and are striving to reduce our environmental impact at each stage of the product lifecycle.”
