Does Nestlé promote Infant Formula to mothers in developing countries?
In order to reach developing world mothers who do need infant formula, while not promoting it to those who do not, Nestlé leaves the recommendation of appropriate breast milk substitutes to health professionals and for almost 20 years has stopped all promotion of infant formula to the public. This commitment to a ban on promotional activities means: no advertising, no store promotions, no price incentives, no ‘milk nurses’ and no educational materials mentioning infant formula.
