How Nestle dealt with a crisis
- Nestlé’s initial response was to force the video’s withdrawal from YouTube, citing copyright. This led to a
viral outbreak of criticism on social media
- Later they had within two months adapted their approach.
- First, to deal with the short-term damage, Nestlé suspended sourcing from Sinar Mas, and the company
held meetings with Greenpeace in which it provided details of its palm oil supply chains.
- The company chose the Forest Trust, a non-profit organisation that helped the company when it came to
liaising with Greenpeace as well as helping Nestlé to audit its suppliers.
- Showing leadership on sustainability is becoming a business imperative. A sustainability risk is potentially
big when the whole world can find out about it overnight.
