Nestlé reorganizes business in sub-Saharan Africa

Nestlé SA said May 29 that it will reorganize its business in sub-Saharan Africa and shut down its regional head office by the end of July to ensure a "healthy growth."

Starting Aug. 1, the central-west Africa region will become a key market for Nestlé. Angola and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, now part of the equatorial Africa region, will become part of the central-west region.

Nestlé will expand its southern African region to include the Horn of Africa and the southern, eastern and island clusters of equatorial Africa region, which will be headquartered in Johannesburg and renamed the eastern and southern African region.

Responsibilities at the regional head office scheduled to close will be redistributed between the head offices of the two other regions on the continent in Accra and Johannesburg. The office closure will not affect employees in the country or cluster offices across the equatorial Africa region and will not impact the consumers, customers, trade and wholesale partners and suppliers of its operations across the region.
