Nescau Chocolate Malt Drink

Nescau is a leading brand of chocolate malt beverage specifically developed for the Brazilian market by Nestlé. Launched in 1932 under the name 'Nescáo', it underwent a name change in 1954 to become Nescau, a name that has since become synonymous with breakfast chocolate in South America.

The brand has expanded its footprint beyond just powder, offering ready-to-drink options, cereals, and snack bars. While the product is deeply rooted in Brazilian culture and heavily manufactured there to meet domestic demand, it is part of the global portfolio of Nestlé. Today, it stands as one of the most recognizable energy-focused chocolate brands in the region.

Ownership belongs to Nestlé S.A., a Swiss multinational food and beverage giant. Nestlé manages the brand through its local subsidiaries, ensuring that Nescau maintains its position as a market leader through sports sponsorships and continuous nutritional innovations.
