Nestlé Waters & Premium Beverages

Today we have reported robust results. This year to the end of Q3, we saw organic growth of 4.4%, with a 3.3% sales increase in Waters and solid double-digit growth in Premium Beverages. Last quarter, there was broad based growth across most of our markets and robust sales in all our channels.    We have now delivered three consecutive quarters of growth in 2025, demonstrating the success of our refocused portfolio and value-driven strategy.     Our strategic progress continues, driven by key initiatives in the quarter, including:      ☀️ 𝗜𝗻𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗶𝘂𝗺 𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘀: we launched an exciting new visual identity and masterbrand campaign for Sanpellegrino in 15+ markets. We also supported our latest delicious Premium Beverage innovations with the US launch of Sanpellegrino CIAO! gaining further momentum. More consumers could get their hands on Sanpellegrino ZERO as it rolled out in 25+ markets, and a new Maison Perrier campaign featuring world renowned actress Lily Collins went live in 15 markets.      ☀️ 𝗕𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘀𝘂𝗺𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲: we engaged audiences with immersive experiences such as Essentia’s New York City takeover and inspiring mental health initiatives from La Vie and Buxton.     ☀️ 𝗖𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴-𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗺 𝗯𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲: we continued in our ambition to create shared value for both our business and society, announcing a €36 million investment to help protect water resources and ecosystems. We also achieved global recognition for our work, being certified by international standards organisation Alliance for Water Stewardship (AWS) at 35 sites.    These efforts, combined with our strong innovation pipeline, are building a resilient foundation for sustained value creation and are reinforcing our position in this dynamic category. #BusinessUpdate #FinancialResults #PremiumBeverages #MarketShare #Innovation

Collaboration with local communities for collective action is one of the core drivers of our sustainability strategy. This was clearly demonstrated recently by our colleagues in Thailand, who came together with the Klong Khanom Jeen community in Ayutthaya for a Nestlé Cares for Water project volunteering day. Together, they spent the day cleaning up waste and invasive plants, planting trees along the canal's banks, and releasing 25,000 fish to help restore the canal’s biodiversity. This hands-on effort is part of our ongoing restoration project for the Khanom Chin canal, executed with the local community and partners including WWF Thailand, that has helped to restore aquatic life, improve local livelihoods, and has become one of Thailand’s first Other Effective area-based Conservation Measures (OECMs) pilot projects. This project is a flagship example of our water stewardship commitment in action, showing how we take a localised approach to solving global water challenges and caring for our watersheds. The project marks its 10th year anniversary in 2025 and as we reach this milestone, we are proud that it has also been shortlisted for the Reuters Events Sustainable Business Global Sustainability Awards in two categories: Biodiversity Champion and SDG Pioneer. Congratulations to our colleagues and our partners for this Global recognition of the tremendous ongoing impact of your work. Stay tuned as we look ahead to the final award ceremony on October 22nd.   #Biodiversity #CommunityImpact #ReutersSustainabilityAwards

Caring for water by protecting and regenerating water resources is at the core of the Nestlé Waters & Premium Beverages business.     Recently, our Gruppo Sanpellegrino team marked a new milestone in our water regeneration journey, breaking ground on a new water management facility for the Sorgente Nossana, the most important source in the Province of Bergamo and one of the largest in Lombardy, Italy.    With an investment of €11 million, this project will:  ⛈️ Ensure a constant supply of high-quality water to over 315,000 people, even during extreme weather events  💧 Reduce reliance on supplementary groundwater wells  💪 Strengthen local resilience against climate change impacts    Once completed in 2026, the facility will be donated to Uniacque - Servizio idrico integrato, benefiting the entire community. This initiative is part of our water stewardship program launched in 2020, aimed at protecting watersheds and biodiversity, partnering with local communities and developing innovative solutions for sustainable water management     #WaterStewardship #Sustainability #CommunityImpact #Sanpellegrino
