Nestlé’s story began in 1866 with the opening of Europe’s first condensed milk factory in Cham, Switzerland, by the Anglo-Swiss Condensed Milk Company. In 1867, Henri Nestlé, a trained pharmacist, introduced one of the first infant cereals, Farine lactée, in Vevey, Switzerland—laying the foundation for our legacy.
