据外媒最新消息，全球食品与饮料巨头雀巢公司正与华尔街投资银行摩根大通展开合作，对旗下高端咖啡连锁品牌蓝瓶咖啡(Blue Bottle Coffee)的未来进行 战略性评估，其中潜在的出售选项已成为核心议题。 知情人士透露，此次评估尚处于早期阶段，但出售的可能性已被摆上台面。对此，观察者网向雀巢集团方面求证，相关负责人表示"这个情况我们也在内部 问"。 资料显示，蓝瓶咖啡是美国精品咖啡连锁品牌，由单簧管演奏家詹姆斯.弗里曼(James Freeman)创立于2002年。 根据当时的公告，2016年时，蓝瓶咖啡只在美国主要城市和日本开设了店铺，门店数为29家。雀巢收购之后，蓝瓶咖啡将在运营上保持独立，并计划在2017 年底前将店铺总数拓展至55家。 时任雀巢公司CEO的马克.施耐德(Mark Schneider)对该交易寄予厚望，他表示："此举彰显了雀巢投资聚焦于高增长类别并紧跟消费趋势。蓝瓶咖啡追求品质 咖啡的激情和具有使命感的前瞻意识是他们品牌获得巨大成功的基石。他们的规模化道路已经非常明晰，而这得益于消费者日益提高的咖啡品味和对可持续 咖啡的青睐。" 当时分析也普遍看好，认为雀巢传统优势在于零售产品和速溶咖 ...

近日有消息传出，雀巢大中华区将于2026年1月1日起成立雀巢营养品业务单元，其中一项重要举措是将 雀巢和惠氏两大婴儿营养业务进行合并，由雀巢婴儿营养业务负责人谢国耀担任新业务部门负责人。12 月2日，雀巢方面向新京报记者证实了上述消息，并称婴儿营养始终是其核心业务，此次整合将帮助其 重拾增长势头。 资料显示，自2012年被雀巢收购以来，惠氏营养品一直保持独立运作，一度借助高端品类稳坐中国婴幼 儿奶粉市场第一宝座。2019年-2021年，受人口出生率下降、国产奶粉品牌崛起及市场竞争加剧等因素 影响，惠氏主要系列产品在中国市场销量出现下滑。经过一系列策略调整，雀巢大中华区婴幼儿营养业 务2022年、2023年实现复苏，但2024年再次下降。第三方数据显示，截至2024年底，雀巢、惠氏在中国 婴幼儿奶粉市场整体份额位列第四，但单独品牌份额已分别掉落至第七、第八位。 此次合并之所以受到外界关注，在于惠氏营养品被雀巢收购的过往13年里，一直独立运作于雀巢婴儿营 养业务之外。 分析认为，雀巢与惠氏婴儿营养业务在中国市场合并，主要目的是提高组织效率，实现"降本增效"，提 高整体有效竞争力。 收购13年后首次业务合并 雀巢方 ...
