Nestle employs over 328,000 people, owns 2000 brands, operates in most of the countries on Earth, and collects revenues to the tune of $89 billion dollars. They have humble beginnings when their founder, Henri Nestle, first invested baby formula as a substitute for breastmilk to curve infant mortality due to malnutrition in the late 19th Century.

Today, the infant formula industry itself is estimated to be worth over $5 billion dollars. Probably more people have consumed a Nestle product than received a COVID shot within the past year and a half at least in the United States.

Nestle has been the subject of controversy over water but they aren't new to receiving hate. In 1977, an organization called the International Baby Food Action Network launched a boycott against Nestle products, in numerous countries around the world, for unethical and aggressive product advertisements and sales tactics in developing nations directly leading to increased infant mortality.
