I can't find anything about Löfbergs being owned by Nestlé online, do you have a source?

I have to do what’s called a ”pudel” (a poodle) in Swedish. Löfbergs launched several coffee varieties around 10 years ago and they ended up on a blacklisting due to Nestlé connections. So I haven’t bought any coffee from them for many years. But as it seems now, I was either misinformed or just naively against anything related to Nestlé. Sorry, fuck Nestlé, but I might just start enjoying Löfbergs again. Thank you for the comments.

To "pudla" is too often seen as a bad thing, it's good to admit when one is wrong, thanks for the info/retraction
