Sustainability key performance indicators
Nestlé provides information on strategic and material environmental, social and governance (ESG) key performance indicators (KPIs). These KPIs, from our Non-Financial Statement, address key issues to Nestlé and its stakeholders.
More information on the methodology used to calculate these metrics can be found in Appendix 1 – 2025 Reporting Scope and Methodology for ESG Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) (pdf, 18Mb), where we detail the definition, scope, methodology and assumptions for calculating and reporting on the selected ESG metrics.
