Nestlé India's New CEO Aims for Tech-Driven Growth
Manish Tiwary, the new boss of Nestlé India, wants to make the company better and faster using technology.
He plans to improve how Nestlé makes and sells its food products, like Maggi noodles and Kit-Kat chocolates.
He also wants to reach more people in cities and villages by making smaller, cheaper packs.
Tiwary is investing in new factories and using technology to listen to what people want.
He believes this will help Nestlé grow and make more money.
He is especially excited about selling more premium products, like Nespresso coffee, and expanding into new areas like pet food.
Tiwary thinks Nestlé can grow a lot in India because not many people buy its products compared to other countries.
He wants to make sure Nestlé keeps improving and stays important to people's lives.
Manish Tiwary, former Amazon India and Unilever executive, is the first outsider to lead Nestlé India.
Tiwary plans to use technology to improve efficiency in operations, sales, and market monitoring.
Nestlé India is digitizing production lines to reduce waste and improve cost optimization.
The company is focusing on premiumization and expanding its reach in urban and rural markets.
Tiwary aims for high single-digit volume growth annually and is investing in new production lines and factories.
