The CII IWN DBCE Student Chapter of Don Bosco College of Engineering (DBCE) organized an industrial field trip to the Nestle India Ltd, Usgao, Goa on 11th March 2026. The fieldtrip was attended by CII IWN student members who were accompanied by the faculty coordinator Ms. Melba D’Souza.
The visit aimed to give students practical exposure to real-world industrial processes and manufacturing practices followed in a global food company.
On arrival, the students were first briefed about the strict safety and hygiene procedures followed inside the factory and were provided with special safety shoes, lab coats, and hair covers. Before entering the production area, the students vacuumed their clothes to remove dust particles, washed their hands, and applied sanitizer to maintain hygiene standards.
Inside the factory, the students observed the process of chocolate manufacturing and saw various advanced machines used in production. It was interesting to see robots, automation, and manual labour working together efficiently. The machinery and production systems were highly organized and demonstrated modern industrial practices.
After the tour, Ms. Prithvi Velingkar a senior professional in Corporate/Public Affairs at Nestlé India Ltd, briefed the students about the work culture and life at Nestlé. The visit concluded with refreshments, where we were served tea and chocolates. The field trip was an informative and enjoyable experience that helped the students understand how large-scale food manufacturing operates.
