Nestle Russia Pledges to Continue Operations
Nestle said its Russian business will keep operating and meet obligations to employees, clients and partners after the Kremlin placed its assets under temporary control.
- On Monday, Nestle's Russian subsidiary pledged to continue commercial activities despite the Kremlin transferring control of its assets to L.E.V. Management, stating it will "unconditionally fulfil all obligations to clients, partners, and employees."
- A presidential decree on Friday transferred the Russian assets of Nestle and French retailer Auchan to temporary control by L.E.V. Management, which the Kremlin said was prompted by hostile actions by "unfriendly" countries.
- Nestle stated the transfer does not amount to nationalization or a change of ownership, expressing confidence that working with L.E.V. Management would help the company maintain efficiency and growth.
- Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov claimed only temporary administration is under consideration, though previous cases have typically involved state expropriation followed by transfer to Kremlin-linked entities.
- Nestle reaffirmed commitment to protecting its rights and ensuring business continuity "in the interests of all stakeholders, particularly its employees," as uncertainty persists over the administration's duration.
