Nestlé
Chocolate and coffee
Nestlé is a Swiss multinational food and beverage corporation, one of the world's largest.
The company produces chocolate, coffee, bottled water, baby formula, and countless other products: Nestlé owns dozens of familiar brands.
The name, from founder Henri Nestlé, is properly spelled with an acute accent but often written without it in English. (Lowercase nestle is the verb meaning to snuggle.)
