 TEL AVIV (Reuters)
 
 - Swiss food giant Nestle will set up a global research and 
                    development centre for snack foods next year in Sderot, a 
                    town in Israel's Negev desert, the Maariv newspaper reported 
                    on Sunday.
 Nestle owns 50.1 percent of Israeli food maker Osem Investments 
                    and the two together produce snack foods at a plant in Sderot.
 According to Maariv, Nestle will invest millions of dollars 
                    to operate the new R&D centre.  The newspaper said the Swiss company owns 17 R&D centres 
                    around the world in the areas of chocolate, coffee and dairy 
                    products and invests over $500 million a year in research. 
                   Osem shares opened up 1.03 percent at 28.35 shekels in a 
                    rising market
