About

The world’s largest food and beverage company, Nestlé has a long and established presence in Chile having begun its operations there in 1934. Today Nestlé Chile’s in-house legal team contributes heavily towards the continued success of the organisation as one nominator highlights in this year’s research: ‘In my opinion, the legal team at Nestlé Chile, led by Andrés Eyzaguirre, general counsel, is extremely proactive, always include the external counsel as an additional member of their team, which makes it very easy to work with them and provide good legal advice. I think they should also be recognised for its cohesion and innovation in addition to its legal ability’. Adding, ‘Eyzaguirre, helps the members of his team to ensure an efficient fulfilment of their goals and give them the space needed for each one to have their space and to grow’. Members of the team are commended for handling legal matters seamlessly. They are also recognised for contributing to ensuring that the creation of Nestlé’s distribution centre in Punta Arenas, the southernmost distribution centre in the world, was successfully achieved when the project was completed in January 2014.
