Nestlé Pakistan Limited (نیسلے پاکستان) is a Pakistani food company which is a subsidiary of Swiss multinational company Nestlé. It is active in dairy, confectionery, coffee, beverages, infant nutrition and bottled drinking water areas.[3][4][5] It is based in Lahore, Pakistan.
Nestlé trades on the Pakistan Stock Exchange.[3]
History
Milkpak Ltd was incorporated in 1979 and started producing packaged milk in 1981.[6] In 1984, the company acquired the Frost branded juice line from its parent company, Packages Limited.[6] Milkpak Ltd further expanded its products with the launch of Milkpak butter in 1985 and a line of packaged cream in 1986.[6]
In 1988, Nestlé, a Swiss multinational food company, acquired a controlling stake in Milkpak Ltd, resulting in the company's rebranding as Nestlé Milkpak Ltd.[6]
During the 1990s, Nestlé allegedly repeated controversial infant formula marketing practices in Pakistan. This first emerged in developing countries during the 1977 Nestlé boycott.[7] A Pakistani salesman named Syed Aamir Raza Hussain became a whistle-blower against Nestlé. In 1999, two years after he left Nestlé, Hussain released a report in association with the non-profit organisation, International Baby Food Action Network, in which he alleged that Nestlé was encouraging doctors to push its infant formula products over breastfeeding.[8][9] Nestlé has denied Raza's allegations. This story inspired the 2014 acclaimed Indian film Tigers by the Oscar winning Bosnian director Danis Tanović.[9]
