Read the text and say what the success of the Nestle Company depends on and what this company invests in.

The Nestle Company was created in 1866 by Henri Nestle. The first Nestle product was baby milk. The company still produces baby products today, but this is just one in a wide range of food and beverage products, including bottled water, breakfast cereals, and ice cream. It’s a very successful company with sales last year of more than 107 billion Swiss francs.

Nestle is a truly global company. Its Head Office is in Vevey in Switzerland, but it manufactures in 780 factories around the world, and sells on all five continents. For this, it depends on its 276,000 employees. Nestle believes that it is important to invest in its employees. Training is an important part of its philosophy. In 2002, 65% of its employees received some form of training. That's one reason why less than 5% of employees leave every year.

It also plays a role in protecting the environment, by using less water, less energy, and less packaging.
