• quality
• safety
• quantity and cost
• the characteristics of individual raw materials
• the reliability in supply
• the local conditions for sustainable production.
The direct procurement system is based on the set up of
the local Nestlé operational company's network, and the
raw materials purchased are processed at Nestlé
manufacturing sites in the country itself.
Nestlé is more involved in the direct procurement of
green coffee and fresh milk. Nestlé implemented direct
procurement for coffee beans in six countries, Thailand,
Ivory Coast, Indonesia, China, Mexico and the
Philippines. In 2003, Nestlé purchased about 1.8 million
bags or 110,000 tons of green coffee from over 100,000
farmers. In 2003 Nestlé implemented direct procurement
for fresh milk in 37 countries (among others China,
Bangladesh, India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, South Africa,
Turkey, Brazil, Argentina, Colombia and Mexico) covering
about 6,600,000 tons of fresh milk from over 325,000
farmers.
