Navratil highlighted that "At present, India is among its top 10 markets, and the potential to move up is 'on the horizon,'" he said.
Nestle is investing more in India as urban life and middle-class spending rise, and it's emerging as an export hub, especially for noodles and spices.
He also called for clearer food labels so people can make healthier choices.
