A new CHF 49 million (USD 53 million) investment in Nestlé's research and
development facilities in Ohio, in the United States, will ensure the company
continues to deliver innovations in frozen and chilled products like prepared
meals and pizzas.
The company's investment reflects its worldwide commitment to continually
improve the nutritional profile of its products such as by using more whole
grains and by reducing the amount of certain ingredients such as salt, fat and
sugar, without compromising on taste.
Food scientists, engineers, and technologists at the centre in the city of Solon
will intensify work on recipe formulation, technologies and processes to support
growing demand from Nestlé's global frozen foods businesses, as well as that in
the US.
"We have a long and successful history of making tasty and nutritionally
balanced foods," said Johannes Baensch, Nestlé's Global Head of Research and
Development at a ceremony to announce the investment in Solon.
"This investment will further enhance our scientific and technological expertise
in frozen and chilled foods, to help us to continue to develop innovative
nutrition health and wellness solutions for our global business.
"We are ultimately aiming to offer consumers worldwide more options for making
balanced and pleasurable everyday meals for themselves and their families," he
added.
Mr Baensch was joined at the event by Governor of Ohio John R. Kasich, Solon
Vice Mayor Edward Kraus and Jobs Ohio Managing Director David Mustine.
