CEO Juan Aranols noted efforts to moderate price increases despite high food costs and expressed cautious optimism for a return to growth by H1 2025, expecting conditions to improve by year-end.

“We continue to work tirelessly to improve the nutritional profile of our products and testament to this is, as an example, the Healthier Choice Logo for Milo by the Ministry of Health. We have also brought to market a number of relevant innovations such as Kit Kat Dark Borneo, made with cocoa beans from Sabah and Sarawak, sourced via our Nestlé Borneo Cocoa initiative, in partnership with the Malaysian Cocoa Board,” he says.
