4 Nestlé in Switzerland the roots of our success More than 150 years ago, Henri Nestlé developed an innovative product in his laboratory in Vevey: an infant cereal that would save the lives of thousands of babies. Since its foundation, Nestlé has helped make the world a better place with its products and services. Millions of people are living better and healthier lives thanks to innovation at Nestlé. We are proud of what we have achieved and will continue along this path. We celebrated our landmark anniversary with all our employees in Switzerland. After all, although Nestlé s success is global, it has its roots in Switzerland. Nestlé creates thousands of jobs in Switzerland, buys millions of francs worth of raw materials from Swiss farmers and invests billions in operations as well as in research and development in Switzerland. The fact that Nestlé is celebrating a success story spanning more than 150 years owes a lot to Switzerland.

5 Enhancing quality of life and contributing to a healthier future We live in times of immense challenge, unprecedented change and extraordinary possibility. All over the world, people strive to enjoy healthy and fulfilling lives, sometimes in difficult situations. The use of natural resources puts stress on our environment and on the stability of communities. Yet human creativity, technology and a commitment to progress open up new possibilities every day to improve lives and help create a healthy and sustainable future for all. We at Nestlé touch billions of lives worldwide; from the farmers we work with to the individuals and families who enjoy our products, the communities where we live and work, and the natural environment upon which we all depend. Their challenges are our challenges. Their success is success in which we all share. Inspired by the scientific breakthrough of our founder, Henri Nestlé, guided by our values and with nutrition at our core, we work alongside partners to enhance quality of life and contribute to a healthier future.

6 This means: For individuals and families we offer products and services that enable healthier and happier lives. For our communities we help develop thriving and resilient communities and support better livelihoods for those we live and work with. For the planet we shape sustainable consumption and steward resources for future generations. This is how we contribute to society while ensuring the long-term success of our company.

9 Research and development based in Switzerland Unrivalled R&D capabilities are at the heart of our efforts to enhance quality of life and contribute to a healthier future. Our science, research and technology expertise, coupled with our passion for consumer-focused innovation, helps us to anticipate and respond to ever-changing consumer and business needs. Driving global innovation A large proportion of our research is conducted in Switzerland, where Nestlé spends 55 % of its global research budget. 10 of our 40 R&D facilities worldwide are located in Switzerland. Core research is carried out in Lausanne, at the Nestlé Research Center (NRC) and at the Nestlé Institute of Health Sciences (NIHS). The NRC was Nestlé s very first research center. Inaugurated in 1987, it celebrates its 30th anniversary this year. Its role is to drive science and technology, from basic nutrition and health research, to applied research for product development and application. Today, the NRC employs about 600 people, including over 250 scientists from approximately 50 nationalities from nutritionists to biochemists, physicists, biologists, immunologists, pharmacists, computer specialists, mathematicians, sensory analysts, food scientists and technologists, packaging and design experts and many more. Building, sharing and applying knowledge Nestlé collaborates with the majority of universities and university hospitals in Switzerland and has close ties with the University of Lausanne (UNIL), the École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) and the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich (ETHZ). From hosting students at our research institutes to participating in joint research

10 projects, we collaborate widely. This helps us and our partners access different skills, build and transfer new technologies, and leverage insights that not only benefit our organisations, but also the society in which we live and work. The Nestlé Institute of Health Sciences, located on the EPFL campus in Lausanne, currently hosts nine PhD students (eight in collaboration with EPFL) while the Nestlé Research Center takes on around 40 masters students each year who contribute to its mission to be the trusted innovation partner for all Nestlé businesses.

13 For individuals and families We offer products and services that enable healthier and happier lives. In Switzerland, we do this as follows: Since the end of 2014, all our products for children have to fulfil the most stringent internal standards that are based on the recommendations of the World Health Organisation and medical associations. We want to further reduce the salt, sugar and saturated fat content in our food and drink products. For example, our fruit yoghurts (Hirz and LC1) now contain 10 % less granulated sugar, Thomy mustard à l Ancienne 10 % less salt and Pralinato ice cream by Frisco 20 % less saturated fat. We prioritise three criteria for the ingredients: naturalness, certification by recognised labels and locally produced. With regard to the nutritional information for our products, we strive to be as comprehensive and transparent as possible. We support at least families with advice and services for a healthy and balanced diet. Moreover, Nestlé supports the following initiatives: Nestlé has a partnership with fit4future, the largest health campaign for children in Switzerland in the fight against obesity and lack of exercise. A Nestlé foundation runs the Alimentarium, an interactive museum with nutrition-themed cookery workshops for young and old alike. Swiss chefs work on a voluntary basis with the United for Healthier Kids initiative launched by Nestlé. The programme teaches them how to cook and instils in them the joy of healthy eating.

14 Nestlé Waters Switzerland supports the project WET (Water Education for Teachers), which teaches children about healthy drinking and respect for water as a resource. With the nest center in Vevey, Nestlé provides visitors with a thrilling and hands-on journey of discovery spanning the 150 years of Nestlé.

15 For our communities We help develop thriving and resilient communities and support better livelihoods for those we live and work with. In Switzerland, we do this as follows: From 2014 to 2016, we provided 1354 jobs for young people under the age of 30 as well as 1152 traineeships and apprenticeships. We support sustainable milk production. From summer 2017, our milk producers in Gruyère district are certified by IP-Suisse and thus promote biodiversity. This means that around 10 % of the fresh milk processed by Nestlé in Switzerland is IP-Suisse certified. The eggs for the Thomy mayonnaise sold in Switzerland are all sourced from free-range chickens. We support the sustainable cultivation of agricultural products: 100 % of the cocoa beans that are processed at Cailler in Broc are UTZ certified and 100 % of the coffee for the factory in Orbe is 4C certified. By the end of 2020, we will be able to guarantee 100 % responsible procurement for 12 of the most important raw materials of Nestlé Switzerland. In addition, Nestlé supports the following initiatives: Nestlé supports the project Independent Living of Pro Infirmis, which helps young people over the age of 18 with minor to moderate learning difficulties to live independently and cope with the demands of daily life. Nestlé provides aid to Swiss mountain communities via Schweizer Berghilfe, thereby helping to improve the living conditions and existence of people in Swiss mountain regions.

16 Nestlé is a partner of the Theodora Foundation, which helps alleviate the suffering of sick children in hospital with its Giggle Doctors. Nestlé donates excess products to the shops of Caritas Switzerland. Nestlé supports cultural events at a local and national level, including the Montreux Jazz Festival and the Lucerne Festival as well as the Vevey Winter Festival In its role as a partner, Nestlé supports various museums in and around Vevey, including the Musée Jenisch in Vevey and the Chaplin s World Museum, which is dedicated to the great comedian Charlie Chaplin.

17 For the planet We shape sustainable consumption and steward resources for future generations. In Switzerland, we do this as follows: We are aiming to halve the CO 2 emissions from our production sites by the end of We are aiming to cut the water consumption at our production sites to one-third by the end of Some specific initiatives: Next to the Henniez bottling facilities, in 2016 Nestlé opened the largest agricultural biogas plant in Switzerland. The plant, which is financed and managed by the energy provider Groupe E Greenwatt, uses tonnes of farmyard manure from just 30 farms per year and processes 3800 tonnes of organic waste from the production of Nespresso and Nescafé coffee into biogas. Nestlé uses some of the heat generated in its plant, which replaces energy from fossil fuel sources at Nestlé and other companies and prevents the emission of 1750 tonnes of CO 2 into the atmosphere each year. With the ECO-Broye programme, Nestlé promotes biodiversity, protects natural resources in the Henniez region and brings together farmers, authorities and other central stakeholders in joint projects. The mineral water that is produced for the Cristalp brand in Saxon is manufactured entirely without fossil fuels. The spring water has a natural temperature of 25 C and is used in a heat pump system together with a pellet heating system as a source of fully renewable energy. Thanks to solar panels on the roof of the factory, which are

18 run by Seic-Teledis, Saxon actually generates surplus power. Since 2017, Nestlé has only used electricity from certified renewable sources in all its operations and locations in Switzerland. In the Nescafé factory in Orbe, it has been possible to reduce water consumption by 32 % thanks to a closed water circulation system. At the end of 2016, Nestlé was granted permission to build a biogas plant at its site in Konolfingen. The biogas is turned into heat and used in the factory as process heating. It replaces fossil natural gas and reduces CO 2 emissions by 400 tonnes per year, which corresponds to the average emissions of 180 cars.
