| | The Nestlé Boycott started in 1977 in Minneapolis, USA and had one basic demand: that the company halt all promotion of breastmilk substitutes to parents and health workers, including direct advertising to consumers, the distribution of free samples and the use of ‘milk nurses&; (company sales representatives dressed as nurses). | | | Baby Milk Action co-ordinates the 18-country international Nestlé boycott which has prompted awareness and given people a voice which cannot be ignored. | | | Because of its size and the extent of its coffee, cocoa and food trading, Nestlé exerts a powerful influence on governments. |

| | KILLING THEM SWEETLY |
| | In order to grow, Nestle had to convince the public that breastfeeding was inferior to the breast milk substitute; then, as now, the company strong-armed the public through heavy use of commercial ads and marketing gimmicks. | | | Infant formula was the company's first product, invented by founder Henri Nestle in the latter part of the 19th century. | | | Its desire for an increased share of the market led to ads in which Nestle claimed to use an exclusive decaffeination process, patented in Switzerland, to produce Nescafe brand coffee. |

| | We are not unreasonable, and a boycott is the last thing we, and the NUS, do in a long line, of negotiation, however, the most important reason for this boycott is that in 40 or 50 years, Nestlé has not changed its ways, and has never apologised for the Baby Milk fiasco. | | | They raise awareness of the issues surrounding the baby food and milk industry and have lots of information. | | | 38% of Students' Unions across the UK have also boycotted Nestlé products, and NUSSL, the company who supplies the NUS, have also boycotted Nestlé (although their products are still available through contractors). |
