As the world’s leading Nutrition, Health and Wellness company, Nestlé further strengthens its Nestlé Health Science business in Japan

Nestlé Japan Ltd. (headquarters in Kobe City, Hyogo Prefecture; Representative Director, President and CEO: Kozo Takaoka) supports the development and continued growth of the Nestlé Health Science business in Japan. To this end, it has established the Nestlé Health Science Manufacturing Plant inside its Kasumigaura Factory; it will start full-scale operation in June 2014.

With an increasingly aging society in Japan, the medical nutrition market has continued to expand. In this context, Nestlé Health Science has steadily increased its market penetration through selling medical nutrition solutions that are highly valued by healthcare professionals, patients and consumers. By starting our own production in Japan, we continue to invest in additional capabilities and production capacity to meet the increasing nutritional needs of an aging population in Japan.
