The company expanded its portfolio by extending NESCAFÉ bulk into the Middle East. It Introduced NESCAFÉ Sunrise in the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, and New Zealand. It also launched the Kitkat range in Singapore and introduced Milkmaid Doypack in Sri Lanka.

On the commodity outlook front, the company expects milk prices to soften after the festive season, coinciding with the onset of the flush season. Coffee prices are expected to stabilize and may decrease as the upcoming crops in Vietnam and India appear to be normal. The global supply and demand for cocoa projected to balance, primarily due to a correction in demand over the past two years. Edible oil prices are expected to remain firm and may rise further due to a tight supply and demand at the global level.

Manish Tiwary, chairman and managing director of Nestlé India stated, “I am happy to report that domestic sales grew at a double-digit rate, led by volume growth. Three out of four product groups delivered strong volume led double-digit growth. Our domestic sales reached Rs 5,411 crore, the highest ever recorded in any quarter. I would like to thank our employees for their commitment and resolve.

The confectionery product group grew at a strong double-digit rate, driven by significant underlying volume growth. Kitkat was the largest growth driver and continued to gain market share. India remains the second largest Kitkat market for Nestlé worldwide. The numeric distribution expansion of Kitkat, particularly in rural areas, contributed to this growth. Munch and Milkybar also grew at high double-digit rates.

The powdered and liquid beverages product group delivered another quarter of high double-digit growth. NESCAFÉ continued to lead the coffee category, gaining market share and increasing household penetration.

The prepared dishes and cooking aids product group registered a strong double-digit value growth on the back of accelerated volume growth. MAGGI Noodles delivered a double-digit volume growth, while Masala-ae-Magic continued its strong run.”
