Nestlé boycott

The Nestlé boycott is a campaign protesting the company's practices, particularly its aggressive marketing of infant formula in developing countries. Critics argue that Nestlé's tactics undermine breastfeeding, leading to health issues, and that the company has not always been transparent about formula risks. The boycott began in the 1970s, aiming to encourage responsible marketing and protect infant health. It is driven by concerns over corporate ethics, such as exploitation of vulnerable populations and environmental impact. The movement seeks to raise awareness and pressure Nestlé to adopt more ethical business practices globally.
