Nestlé Professional to provide £2m of products to support reopening

The donation is part of Nestlé Professional’s ongoing 'Always Open for You' campaign, which has supported customers and communities throughout the Covid-19 crisis.

In addition to around £4m worth of product donations to frontline workers, vulnerable people and food banks as part of Nestlé’s wider support, Nestlé Professional has also introduced a number of schemes aimed at easing the impact of Covid-19 on its customer’s businesses including extended credit terms; machine rental freezes; and a series of webinars and insight reports to keep customers informed throughout lockdown .

"Independent businesses up and down the country have felt the impact of the crisis through loss of business and the resulting impact on earnings, as well as the challenges of re-opening in the current climate," says Katya Simmons, managing director of Nestlé Professional.

"With restrictions now coming to an end, we’re committed to continuing to play our part in supporting the recovery of the industry so that together, we can get back to business.”

The campaign will support existing Nestlé Professional customers throughout the foodservice industry over the next few months. Participating routes to market will contact customers direct to provide products.
