The Nestle’s Company
The Nestle Company believes that infant formula is important for infant nutrition when breastfeeding is not possible. They support the WHO code for promoting breastfeeding and maintaining a good relationship with governments and health professionals. To avoid accusations of harming Third World Babies, Nestle should be aware of their consumers and maintain their share of the market. To protect themselves in the future, companies should ensure their products pass safety examinations. If I had to decide whether to promote Nestle Baby Formula in Third World Countries, I would still promote it to reduce sickness transmission from mothers to their babies. In light of the new problem of HIV infection being spread through mothers’ milk, Nestle should recommend bottle feeding for babies when the mother is infected.
