(1) NPPC has its own Corporate Compliance Committee and abides by the Nestlé Management and Business Principles.
Our governing committees reside at our headquarters in St. Louis. Audits (e.g., compliance and process optimization) are also conducted on a regular basis by the Nestlé internal audit organization.
Audit findings are shared with NPPC senior management as well as the parent company to ensure accountability.
Action plans related to audit findings are given high priority by senior leaders.
