In addition to its famous namesake chocolates, Nutella is one of the company&#8217;s products.<\/p>\n<p>The company sources its hazelnuts from Turkey, Italy, Chile, Argentina, the U.S., Spain, South Africa and Serbia.

It is headquartered in Milan. I am impressed by its corporate commitment to responsible stewardship and its programs to foster healthy rural development in +regions where its products are sourced.
