“It shouldn’t be just thrown in our lap. Everyone has to work together. We’re certainly contributing to the solution here, through the fees that we’re paying, and through the research we’re doing,” says Schneider, speaking at a panel by Swiss private bank Lombard Odier on Oct 5.
Nestlé, one of the world’s largest consumer products companies, should not be the one shouldering responsibility for reducing the world’s mounting plastic waste, says CEO Mark Schneider.
The Switzerland-based company, famous for products such as KitKat and Maggi, is already contributing to the solution via Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) fees and payments, says Schneider, which he believes is “absolutely fine” and “workable too”.
