Nestlé: Legacy and Future Commitments in Saudi Arabia

Nestlé journey in Saudi Arabia began more than five decades ago. A major milestone came in 2011, when it became the first international company to establish direct sales and distribution operations in the Kingdom. This move strengthened Nestlé’s presence and helped it better serve the local market.

Expanding Presence and Impact

Today, Nestlé Saudi Arabia operates with a robust infrastructure. The company manages 12 offices and 7 water factories across the Kingdom. This network has created more than 5,000 jobs, showing its commitment to employment and economic growth in Saudi Arabia.

Nestlé also works closely with over 2,800 local suppliers, which strengthens local industries and promotes a sustainable supply chain. These partnerships help improve local sourcing and reduce environmental impact.

Local Manufacturing and Market Reach

Nestlé is not just distributing products—it also plays a major role in local manufacturing. It produces various dairy and confectionery products within the country. Through this local focus, Nestlé now serves more than 23,000 retail outlets in Saudi Arabia. This wide reach highlights the company’s strong role in the national food and beverage industry.

Investment in the Future

Looking ahead, Nestlé plans to invest SAR 7 billion over the next 10 years in Saudi Arabia. The investment will focus on building advanced manufacturing facilities and supporting research and development. These efforts aim to boost local production, encourage innovation, and support the goals of Saudi Vision 2030, which promotes economic diversity and sustainability.

A Long-Term Commitment

Nestlé’s long-standing presence in Saudi Arabia reflects its dedication to sustainable growth, innovation, and community well-being. By using its global expertise, Nestlé continues to shape the future of the Kingdom’s food and beverage sector. Its focus on developing local talent and building strong partnerships supports mutual growth and long-term socio-economic benefits for the region.
