Nestlé: 150 Years of Food Industry Dominance

[@Kenckaplus]

So at first they "wanted to save lives" and "ended up making profits". Then they "wanted to make profits" and "ended up destroying lives".

[@samikshasinha7821]

It all depends on who the leader is. Earlier who started the company was more inclined towards solving a problem. Eventually when leadership changed the company shifted from a people driven company to a profit driven company. It all depends on the person who has the authority.

Local laws are useless against international Companies. That´s why they keep dividing us. As long as there is no global instance, the world is ruled by Corporations. If one contry forbids to them to do a thing they simply move the production to another one. And Swizerland is a paradise for curropt companies because of some nice loopholes. An example : In the EU it´s not allowed to produce forbidden goods. In Zwizerland you are free to do so as long as you produce it in order to sell it in other countries. That´s why swizerland has so many Tabacco Factories. You can make Zigarretes for all the countries even if you use Substances that are forbidden in Cigarettes in Europe. The same with Pesticides and Medicins that are forbiden in Europe.

From businesspundit.com: In 2000, Nestlé paid over $14.5 million into a fund to try to deal with claims of slave labor suffered at their hands from Holocaust survivors and Jewish organizations. The firm has admitted that it acquired a company in 1947 that had used forced labor during the war and has also stated that “[It] is either certain or it may be assumed that some corporations of the Nestlé Group that were active in countries controlled by the National Socialist (Nazi) regime employed forced laborers.” Nestlé helped with the financing of a Nazi party in Switzerland in 1939 and ended up winning a lucrative contract, supplying the entire chocolate needs of the German army during World War II. From Vice News: With about 0.5 percent of the world's population, Canada has a disproportionate share of global water supply with seven percent of the globe's renewable water and roughly half of the world's lakes. Groundwater is just one of the many water sources in Canada, but the lack of federal and provincial regulation with regards to groundwater extraction has made it very easy for big companies like Nestle to swoop in and monopolize groundwater resources. In fact, Nestle Waters Canada-a subsidiary of the multi-billion dollar Swiss company Nestle Group actually has a pretty long history of extracting clean groundwater from all across Canada, specifically British Columbia. Nestle Waters has two plants in Canada-one in Hope, BC, the other in Aberfoyle, near the city of Guelph, Ontario. There have been ongoing water disputes between the community and Nestle in both those regions.
