Nestlé USA

Nestlé USA is striving for a more sustainable future, a healthier planet, a stronger more responsible society, and a thriving economy. Their goal is to leave the world better than we found it by achieving net-zero emissions by 2050.

Building on more than a decade of efforts to generate zero waste and use energy and water more efficiently, Nestlé USA is continuing to transform their operations to help ensure they make and transport our products in as sustainable a way as possible. They have achieved zero waste for disposal at all of their manufacturing facilities and distribution centers in the U.S., and all Nestlé facilities across the country will be using 100% renewable electricity by 2025. Additionally, their Carnation facility in Modesto, CA returns more water to the community than it uses for production and cleaning through a “water positive” process to make evaporated milk.

Headquartered in Arlington, VA, Nestlé USA has 53 locations across 24 states, which includes manufacturing, R&D, and supply chain facilities and corporate offices. Nestlé USA employs nearly 15,000 employees.

Arlington Nestle Headquarters Building Nestlé USA, a division of Nestlé, is harnessing the power of employees, farmers, partners, retail customers, consumers, and brands to take urgent action on big issues, including climate change, plastic waste, responsible farming, and energy consumption. By committing to these ambitious goals they are aiming to achieve zero net greenhouse gas emissions by 2050.

To help achieve that, Nestlé is pioneering renewable energy alternatives, scaling up initiatives in agriculture to absorb more carbon, and innovating across their portfolio to include more products with a better environmental footprint. They are also advocating for policies that inspire the development and use of cleaner energy alternatives.

The work behind all of these efforts requires Nestlé to examine not only their operations but also each of their products to see how they can make them better for the planet. Their brands are working to bring their sustainability efforts to life, and many, including PERRIER®, Acqua Panna®, S.Pellegrino®, Nespresso®, Garden of Life®, Blue Bottle Coffee® and Sweet Earth Foods®, have committed to achieving carbon reduction in the coming years.
