The facility in the city of El Jadida has helped to increase dairy production and improve the quality of fresh milk it sources in the country, since it opened in 1992.
Over the past two decades the annual amount of milk collected has increased from 6.6 million litres to 80 million litres, sourced from around 16,000 farmers. The factory produces Nestlé branded products such as Nido, Nescafé, Cerelac and Maggi.
Nandu Nandkishore, Nestlé’s head of zone Asia, Oceania, Africa and the Middle East, said: “The 20th anniversary celebration of our El Jadida factory reiterates our commitment to our long-term presence in this region – in successful and challenging times.
“Thanks to this factory, we have been closer to our Moroccan consumers and able to better adapt our products to their needs and preferences, enabling us to offer high-quality food products that provide nutritional value.”
