NEW DELHI: India emerged as the highest-performing market for Nestle in first half this year (CY2026) and is on track to be among its top five markets driven by “billionaire brands, volume-led growth and right value proposition across portfolio’’.

“Emerging markets are driving growth for Nestlé across the board and India is leading the pack,” Nestle’s global CEO Philipp Navratil said in his first visit to the country, after taking the helm in Sept last year. At present, India is among its top 10 markets, and the potential to move up is “on the horizon’”, he said.
