17. Organisation
Nestle is organised in a matrix system, by products and
geography
Products – in terms of the business units
They define the strategy of each of the products
EG: Ice cream, coffee, nutrition (infants), etc.
Geographies – The businesses have their central head unit
Zone Europe, Zone Americas, Zone Asia/Oceania/Africa
18.
19. Organisation
The matrix structure serves Nestlé well
For a global organisation, the ability to organise around
geographical markets and also around products is an
advantage
It has a manager in charge of a product line, but each
product line is also coordinated with a manager in charge of
a specific geographical area
20. Organisation
Nestle is very decentralised, and has a polycentric approach
to the way they do business
The regions decide which products should be put on the
market, and how they communicate with the consumers
Of course, there are some exceptions, such as:
Nestlé Nutrition – needs of babies are the same everywhere in
the world
Nestlé Purina Petcare
Nestlé Waters
Nespresso
Nestlé Professional
Nestlé Health Science
These are known as GMB – Globally Managed Businesses
21. Pest Analysis
Political
Nestle is in full support of the Government's efforts to
encourage healthier diets and active lifestyles to help
counter problems associated with obesity, diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases
We have made significant change to improve our
products' profile to complement the Government's
efforts to create a healthier population
23. Pest Analysis
Social
Nestle was founded on social responsibility, sound
human values and principles more than 140 years ago
Though it is a global brand, Nescafe is locally produced
to meet the taste preferences of local consumers
24. Pest Analysis
Technology
Innovate & renovate nutritious and healthier products using
R&D expertise
Every Nestle product undergoes as extensive R&D process and
a stringent quality standard before it is launched
benefit from world-class manufacturing facilities, best private
R&D capability in food and nutrition, international quality and
safety standards
25. Layers of the Environment
- Industry -
Food & Drink Industry
Complex, global collective of diverse businesses
Processed food sales worldwide are approximately US$3.2 trillion
(2004)
Over 16.5 million people are employed in the food industry (4.1 million
people in the EU)
More people in the world are involved in agriculture as their primary
economic activity than in any other
It only accounts for twenty percent of the world's Gross Domestic
Product (GDP)
Regarding technology, it is hard to find an area that does not have a
direct impact on the food industry – agricultural machinery;
biotechnology; nanotechnology; etc. computing such as networks
and special software etc.
For example, the GLOBE tool: has been able to track the advantages
that decentralisation brings in terms of benefits
26. Layers of the Environment
