Nestle's Milk District Model: Economic Development for a Value-Added Food Chain and Improved Nutrition
By: Ray A. Goldberg and Kerry Herman
Abstract
Nestle is the largest milk firm in the world. For over a century, it has developed a milk model procurement program that improved the well-being of the small-scale farmer and the ultimate consumer. Can it partner with other firms and institutions to make even greater use of this model and can it do so in a manner that is consistent with host country goals and equally useful to the long-term viability of Nestle?
