Sorry if this is too late, or if I've missed a post with the same 
points... I think I've caught them all..

Nestle was a German company, that moved lock stock and barrel to 
Switzerland.

In terms of the paper, a look at how the emergence of the European Union 
has impacted on trade barriers and trade agreements in both the 
European, and global, context, would fit very well with this company.  
Especially as it does not trade in formula in such countries as the UK, 
even 'tho it is a 'European' company.  There is a rich economic and 
political aspect to looking at how it has responded to boycott and how 
it manipulates trading barriers.  The recent ruling in Belgium about the 
death of the baby fed formula in the hospital, would be an end point in 
terms of both the report (how legal requirements allow no warnings on 
the formula, yet at the same time the courts stated risk was known and 
accepted) and the teacher's scepticism.  The European Union is pretty 
central to any study of Europe!

Obviously, she'll have the urls for both Baby Milk Action and Mike 
Brady's boycott blog.  :-)
