2. IMPORTANT ASPECTS OF CASE
INTRODUCTION
For over 20 years, Nestlé has been
directly or indirectly charged with
involvement in the death of Third World
infants.
Accused Nestlé of unethical and
immoral behavior.
According to UNICEF, every year 1.5
million babies die fed milk powder.
THE CHARGES
Focus on the issue of whether
advertising and marketing of such
products have discouraged breast
feeding among Third World mothers
and have led to misuse of the products,
thus contributing to infant malnutrition
and death.
Irresponsible Promotion milk powder
detriment of breast milk.
3. THE DEFENSE
Nestlé argues that the company has never
advocated bottle feeding instead of breast
feeding.
The real nutritional problem in the Third World
is not whether to give infants breast milk or
formula but how to supplement mothers’ milk
with nutritionally adequate foods when they
are needed.
NESTLÉ POLICIES
The most important are…
No advertising to the general public.
No sampling to mothers.
No use of commission/bonus for sales.
No use of infant pictures on labels.
No point-of-sale advertising.
No financial or material inducements to
promote products.

4. THE NEW TWISTS
A new environmental
factor has made the entire
case more complex: As of

some 3.8 million children
around the world had
contracted the human
immunodeficiency virus
(HIV) at their mothers’
breasts.
