As the world’s largest food and beverage company we are driven by a simple aim: unlocking the power of food to enhance quality of life for everyone, today and for generations to come. To deliver on this, we serve with passion, with a spirit of excellence, offering products and services for all stages of life, every moment of the day, helping people care for themselves and their families. Our culture is based on our values rooted in respect: respect for ourselves, respect for others, respect for diversity and respect for the future.
We can trace our origin back to 1866, when the first European condensed milk factory was opened in Cham, Switzerland, by the Anglo-Swiss Condensed Milk Company. One year later, Henri Nestlé, a trained pharmacist, launched one of the world’s first prepared infant cereals ‘Farine lactée’ in Vevey, Switzerland.
Today, we employ around 273,000 people and have factories or operations in almost every country in the world. With our headquarters still based in the Swiss town of Vevey, we had sales of CHF 84.3 billion in 2020.
Our portfolio covers almost every food and beverage category – offering products and services for all stages of life, every moment of the day, helping people care for themselves and their families.

We believe everyone deserves the benefits of a modern connected life.
Our vision is to lead the delivery of a bold, new digital world to our customers and our mission is to make our customers’ lives a whole lot BRIGHTER. We do this by delivering relevant, accessible, high quality telecommunications solutions that put them in control.
From the first phone call made at Maritime House, Apapa in 2001, we have been focused on making connections that matter. Since then, the continued support and patronage of our customers have enabled us grow into Nigeria’s leading mobile telecommunications provider serving over 52 million subscribers, with truly national coverage and a fibre network that reaches every state in the nation.
We are a proudly Nigerian company, deeply committed to the progress of our people and the growth of the economy (with over N2 trillion invested since 2001). Guided by the philosophy of shared prosperity, we firmly believe that the success and growth of our business is tied to the wellbeing and success of the communities in which we operate.
At the heart of the Company is a diverse group of committed employees. Our people drive our success and exemplify leadership, innovation, relationships, integrity and a can-do spirit – MTN’s core values
Today, MTN is Nigeria’s premier provider of connectivity, communication and collaboration solutions, and the largest privately owned mobile operator in Africa, Europe and the Middle East. We look forward with excitement to greater strides we will make together. Tomorrow!
