Does Nespresso have a clue about who's to replace departing spokesman George Clooney?

Does Nespresso have a clue about who’s to replace departing spokesman George Clooney?

By Stuart Smith on March 8, 2013

So, Nestlé is to drop George Clooney – Hollywood’s suavest since Cary Grant – as brand ambassador for Nespresso, to replace him with – what?

Nespresso goes dark and dirty – with no Clooney!

By Staff on January 29, 2013

Nestle in the legal trenches to defend $3bn Nespresso goldmine

Nestle in the legal trenches to defend $3bn Nespresso goldmine

By Stephen Foster on January 13, 2011

Someone at Nestle once told me that a cup of coffee was the most profitable product in the world (all that water) and the world’s biggest food maker has profited mightily from the end product of the bean recently via its phenomenally successful Nespresso real coffee system.
