	32	+Henri Nestlé, a trained pharmacist, develops a breakthrough infant food in 1867 namely ‘farine lactée’ (‘flour with milk’) and launches it in Vevey, Switzerland. The product combines cow’s milk, wheat flour and sugar, and Nestlé develops it for the infants who cannot be breastfed. The ‘Nest’ logo of the group came into being around this time.

	34	+However, the history starts 1 year back in 1866 when US brothers Charles and George Page had established Anglo-Swiss Condensed Milk Company, which would merge with Nestlé to become Nestlé Group in 1905. They established their first condensed milk production facility in Cham and they ran the //Milkmaid //brand.
