Centers
The Product Technology Centers
(PTCs) lead multi-center R&D
programs for product and process
innovation. Each PTC works in one
specific business sector to fulfill the
needs of Nestle of each SBU: coffee
and beverages, confectionery, ice-
cream, infant nutrition products,
culinary products, etc…
Each PTC works closely with Vevey HQ

s
Nestlé markets worldwide
to scientific ideas and
research and findings into
industrialapplications. The speed with
which a product can be brought to
market is one of the key elements
in a competitive environment, and
will become even more vital in the
R&D Centers
R&D Centers work on non core product categories or to
adapt products and processes to local tastes and needs.
Certain products, like powdered milks, will be the same the
world over, so whether product development is carried out in
Switzerland or the USA is of little importance to the nature of
the product.
Culinary products like soups, sauces or prepared dishes
are a different story. Tastes differ widely from country to
country. Therefore, product development or adaptation needs
to take this into account.
