Over the past five years, Nestlé has undertaken a multi-million pound investment programme to establish its next generation of world-class manufacturing and office facilities in the UK.
As part of this programme, the company has been seeking a new head office in Croydon for several years. However, it has proven difficult either to redevelop the company’s current offices or to identify an alternative location that meets its needs.
In 2010, the company announced that it would need to explore options outside Croydon, while continuing to look for a suitable location in the town.
Paul Grimwood, Nestlé UK & Ireland chairman & CEO, said: “This move represents an exciting new chapter for Nestlé in the UK. We are investing across the UK to establish our next generation of world-class facilities. Our new head office will provide a modern, efficient and attractive workplace for our people in an ideal location.”
The business will start to move later this year and will complete its relocation by the end of 2012.
