Nestlé Malta expands annual Clothes Collection Drive

A coat hanging unused in a wardrobe. A jumper sitting at the back of a drawer. Children’s clothes that
no longer fit. Yet these everyday items could make a real difference in another home.

This year, Nestlé Malta is broadening the appeal to include men’s, women’s and children’s winter
clothing, following requests from its charity partners who have seen growing demand across all age
groups. The broader appeal will make it easier for more people to get involved and support the
initiative.

From 3rd to 28th November 2026, donations of clean, pre-loved winter clothing can be dropped off
at the Nestlé Consumer Centre in Lija. The items will then be distributed to Inspire Foundation and
MSPCA, both of which operate charity shops that help fund essential services and support their
ongoing work within the community. By giving pre-loved clothing a second life, the initiative also
promotes sustainability by extending the life of garments that might otherwise remain unused or be
discarded.

Anita Olton, Corporate Affairs Manager at Nestlé Malta, said: ” “Many of us have winter clothes
tucked away in our wardrobes that we no longer wear but are still in great condition. By donating them,
we can help local charities, support people in our community and ensure those items continue to
serve a purpose. It’s a simple gesture, but one that can have a meaningful impact.”

Complementing the clothing collection, Nestlé Malta will also donate food products to Foodbank
Lifeline Foundation, helping the organisation provide support to individuals and families facing
hardship across Malta. Together, the clothing and food donations will benefit three organisations
working every day to support people, families and communities across the country. The donation
reflects Nestlé’s purpose of unlocking the power of food to enhance quality of life for everyone, today
and for generations to come, and its ongoing commitment to supporting food access and community
wellbeing in Malta.

Since launching the Clothes Collection Drive in 2020, Nestlé Malta has collected several tonnes of
clothing and food donations through the generosity of employees, consumers and the wider public.
What started as a small local initiative has become one of the company’s longest-running
community projects, bringing together sustainability and social support in a practical and
meaningful way.

Those wishing to support the initiative can drop off their donations at the Nestlé Consumer Centre in
Lija between 3rd and 28th November 2026. Opening hours are Monday to Thursday from 08:00-15:00
and Friday to Saturday from 08:00-12:00. For further information about the Clothes Collection Drive,
