Nestlé Opens Third R&D Centre in China
Nestlé has officially opened its latest Chinese research and development centre in Dongguan, in Guangdong province. The centre is a joint venture with Hsu Fu Chi, China’s leading confectionery, biscuits and traditional snack manufacturer.
The R&D facility will support Nestlé’s partnership with Hsu Fu Chi and focus on research in confectionery and ice cream, building on Nestlé’s global R&D strength in these areas to develop more high-quality products for consumers across Asia. Nestlé was among the first multinational companies to invest and build factories in Dongguan.
This research and development facility is part of the Nestlé R&D organisation in China, which consists of two centres in Shanghai and Beijing. Each centre is focused on nutrition and health, targeting consumer needs and conducting research on products, development, innovation and renovation.
