    Business Research Ethics

    The trouble for the Swiss conglomerate goes back to the 1960’s. Nestle was “criticized by social activists for marketing their powered milk formula to less developed countries”. (Boyd, C., 2011) The unethical research behavior that may have been involved with this is that people were under the perception that the company was misleading how the formula “better for their babies than breast milk.” (Boyd, C., 2011) to mothers in less developed countries. The critics against the company felt that by giving this information to the mothers, they could come and continue the mothers to stay only with the formula. Critics also felt that Nestle was also giving information about the death of infants that some felt was not correct. Nestle told the mothers that infant deaths with breast fed children happened in three ways: “babies were unprotected against illnesses because of the lack of antibodies not found in breast milk”; “mothers could not afford to boil water”; and “mothers could not afford the price of the product and dilute the amount of formula which would cause malnutrition”. (Boyd, C., 2011)…

    Nestle Water Scandal

    Nestle is no stranger to boycott. Beginning in the 1970’s the corporation which brought consumers trusted brands such as Ovaltine and Nestle Tollhouse chips suffered backlash from their aggressive marketing of infant formula in underdeveloped countries, which was leading to sickness and death among infants. Consumers across the United States not only boycotted Nestle brands and products but petitioned and picketed to gain support against the corporation. Ethical business practices along with the exploiting of natural resources have taken their toll on Nestle, but not just the company’s bottom line has seen effects. Stakeholders such as small rural communities in the Great Lakes region, the East Coast, even in Western areas such as the Arkansas River in Utah, as well as third world countries including Nigeria, Ethiopia and Pakistan have dealt with the production and sale of Nestle bottled water.…

    Nestle is a corporation engaged in home products processing and marketing worldwide. In the mid-1860s, it developed an infant-food formula as a supplement and/or substitute to breast-feeding. It then claimed humanitarian achievement after the formula was used by relief organizations such as the Red Cross to feed starving infants in refugee camps. In third world countries, the Nestle product has also been used as an alternative to less nutritious local infant feeding substitutes. And today, Nestle is the third largest home food company in the world with gross sales of nearly US$39 billion a year. But the Nestle success story is marred by controversy as the company has been charged for gross violations of a World Health Organization Code that affected both first world and third world countries.…

    This brings up an issue involving Nestle and this case ,being that they market to consumers that are seen to be more vulnerable. Crane and Matten (2004) have illustrated that vulnerable consumers are those who lack education and therefore are judged inapt in using products safely. A large number of mothers that have used Nestle’s baby formula are surprisingly illiterate and cannot even read the necessary instructions to ensure safe use of the product. This makes them vulnerable targets. Therefore, if we apply the rights based theory to Nestle, we can say that they are acting immoraly in their business activities, as they aggressively market their product towards vulnerable consumers greatly affects the consumers right to be treated fairly.…

    Nestle should concentrate on that in order to come up with new products. Since the company started out to serve infants in need for nutrition, Nestle should enhance and find way to enrich their product with substances and vitamins that will provide children their daily needs of calcium and even mothers. Because they should start from mothers’ health in order to provide infants’ health. Especially now when children suffer diabetes amongst other things, they need more care than before.…
