Nestl UK is to concentrate its export sales division at York, creating 11 jobs.
The reorganisation, to come into effect in the New Year, will consolidate Nestl Group's Croydon and York export activities into one single operation - Nestl UK Export.
Nick Symington, currently head of Overseas Trade at York, who has been appointed director of Nestl UK Export, said: "In order to develop and grow our export sales, it has been decided to consolidate our Croydon and York export activities into one singe operation.
"This will have the advantages of bringing our export product portfolio together and improving service by providing a single point of contact. We can additionally expect administrative and cost benefits."
In October Nestl announced York was to become one of the main centre for its research and development into chocolate and confectionery.
