Background
S.Pellegrino is a Nestlé Waters brand, and its Israeli position differs from that of Nestlé's Israeli food brands: it reaches Israeli shelves and restaurants through Tempo Beverages, an independent Israeli importer that markets it alongside other imported waters, rather than through Osem-Nestlé, the Israeli group Nestlé has owned outright since February 2016. No donation, sponsorship, investment or statement of support for Israel, its government or its military has been documented for the S.Pellegrino brand itself, and the water is not bottled in Israel. What is documented at Nestlé subsidiary level, and recorded on the Nestlé page, is that Osem-Nestlé — not the Swiss parent and not the S.Pellegrino brand — sent food and water shipments to IDF soldiers and rescue forces in the first days of the October 2023 war, delivered products to the Association for the Wellbeing of Israel's Soldiers and supplied residents of Sderot; Nestlé S.A. itself made no statement of support and temporarily closed an Israeli plant in October 2023 as a safety precaution. Neither S.Pellegrino nor Nestlé appears on the BDS movement's official targeted-boycott list, and Logically Facts' November 2023 review of a viral 45-brand 'Israeli products' list found that none of the international brands named originate in Israel.

Documented support
| Type | Date | Amount | Recipient | Sources |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Operations in Israel | 2026-07 | — | Israeli beverage market (via Tempo Beverages, an independent Israeli importer) S.Pellegrino, the Italian sparkling mineral water owned by Nestlé's Sanpellegrino S.p.A., is sold in Israel as an imported product marketed by Tempo Beverages — an Israeli beverage company that is not part of the Nestlé group — which runs a Hebrew brand page for San Pellegrino and lists it in its imported-water portfolio alongside Perrier, Aqua Panna and San Benedetto; the bottles reach Israeli supermarkets such as Rami Levy and the restaurant trade through that importer. S.Pellegrino is not handled by Osem-Nestlé, Nestlé's wholly-owned Israeli subsidiary, and does not appear in that company's brand grid. This is arm's-length commercial importing and distribution by an Israeli third party; the water is bottled in San Pellegrino Terme, Italy, and no donation, sponsorship or political activity by the brand is involved. |
