Nestlé Deutschland began in 1970. Back then, it was known as Nestlé Alimentana AG. Later, in the early 1980s, its name changed to Nestlé Gruppe Deutschland GmbH. Finally, in 1987, it became Nestlé Deutschland AG.
In the 1970s, another company called Rowntree Mackintosh built a chocolate factory in Germany. They made popular treats like Kit Kat. In 1988, Nestlé bought the British company Rowntree Mackintosh. The next year, in 1989, the German part of Rowntree Mackintosh joined Nestlé Deutschland AG. This German factory still makes tasty chocolates like After Eight and Smarties.
A few years ago, Angela Merkel, who was the leader of Germany at the time, and Paul Bulcke, who was the head of Nestlé, opened a new factory. This factory, called Nestlé Werk Schwerin, is located in Schwerin, a city in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.
