Nestlé launches three drinking water plants for local communities
Nestlé has opened three new facilities in Pakistan to give free access for some 30,000 residents in Punjab and Sindh to clean drinking-water.

The plants, in Khanewal, Kabirwala and Village Allahabad, will be maintained by Nestlé to ensure the consistency of water quality, the company said in a statement.

Their opening brings the total number of clean drinking water facilities constructed by the Swiss multinational in Pakistan to eight, from which more than 50,000 people benefit each day.

John Miller, the Nestlé’s vice-president responsible for the facilities, said the company was committed to engaging with the communities around its areas of operation.

Improvement of access to water and sanitation is just one of the many ways in which we add value to the communities we operate in​,” he said at the Allahabad inauguration.
