Innovation driving Nestlé's investments in Europe Donnerstag, 23. Mai 2013 - 13:38

Nestlé is investing EUR 44 million (CHF 55 million) on new technology for its Nescafé factory at Girona in north-eastern Spain.

The new equipment will deliver greater efficiencies in the production of soluble coffee, while improving the environmental footprint of the factory by significantly reducing water consumption and energy used in the manufacturing process.

The two year investment programme was announced by Nestlé's Spain's Chief Executive Officer Bernard Meunier at a media event in Barcelona.

"The new technology will make the factory more efficient, ensuring its competiveness in years to come," he said.
