Nestle Flags Price Volatility Amid Rising Costs, Focuses on Volume Growth
Company adopts “wait and watch” approach as geopolitical tensions and input costs rise
Nestle India has expressed concerns over price volatility driven by rising input costs and ongoing geopolitical uncertainties, even as it aims to maintain volume-led growth in the new fiscal year.
Chairman and Managing Director Manish Tiwary said the company is adopting a cautious “wait and watch” approach, citing unpredictable global conditions, potential monsoon concerns, and fluctuating commodity prices.
Despite these challenges, Nestlé India plans to focus on expanding consumption and market penetration. Its strategy includes driving volumes, offering better value to consumers, and leveraging technology to improve operational efficiency.
The company’s portfolio—featuring popular brands like Maggi, Nescafé, and KitKat—remains central to its growth approach, even as cost pressures continue to influence pricing decisions.
