    November 7, 2014 Mondelez International Announces $50 Million Investment Opportunity for UK Coffee Site - Proposal coincides with Banbury coffee plant's 50th anniversary - Planned investment highlights success of Tassimo single-serve beverage system - Part of a multi-year, $1.5 billion investment in European manufacturing BANBURY, England, Nov. 7, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Mondelez International, the world's pre-eminent maker of chocolate, biscuits, gum and candy as well as the second largest player in the global coffee market, today announced plans to invest $50 million (£30 million) in its Banbury, UK factory to build two new lines that will manufacture Tassimo beverage capsules. Tassimo is Europe's fastest growing single-serve system, brewing a wide variety of beverages including Jacobs and Costa coffees and Cadbury hot chocolate. The decision is part of Mondelez International's multi-year investment in European manufacturing, under which $1.5 billion has been invested since 2010. The planned investment will create close to 80 roles and coincides with the 50th anniversary of the Banbury factory, which produces coffee brands such as Kenco, Carte Noire and Maxwell House. The Tassimo capsules produced in Banbury will be exported to Western European coffee markets in France and Spain as well as distributed in the UK. "Tassimo is a key driver of growth for our European coffee business, so this $50 million opportunity is a great one for Banbury," said Phil Hodges, Senior Vice President, Integrated Supply Chain, Mondelez Europe. "Over the past 18 months, we've made similar investments in Bournville and Sheffield, underscoring our commitment to UK manufacturing.

  • Mondelēz Union Network
    Mondelēz Union Network What is ? Mondelez is a global snack foods company which came into being on October 2, 2012 when the former Kraft Foods Inc. was split into two, resulting in the creation of two separate companies, both headquartered in the USA. Mondelēz took the “snacks” products (biscuits, confectionery, salty crackers, nuts, gum, Tang), giving it about two-thirds the revenue of the former Kraft. The remaining “grocery” products were stuffed into a North American (only) company now known as Kraft Foods Group. Former Kraft CEO Irene Rosenfeld now heads up Mondelēz. If you worked for the former Kraft or one of its subsidiaries manufacturing or distributing snack products, including former Danone or Cadbury products, you now work for Mondelēz or one of its subsidiaries. In some countries, the name change will not be immediate. Mondelēz Kraft Foods Group Oreo, Chips Ahoy, Fig Kraft macaroni and cheese Newtons, SnackWell’s, Stove Top stuffing Nilla wafers, Mallomars Kool-Aid and Capri Sun Nabisco crackers including drinks Ritz, Triscuit, Teddy Grahams, Deli brands including Oscar Honey Maid, Premium Mayer, Louis Rich, saltines, Planters nuts, Lunchables, Deli Creations, Cheese Nips, Wheat Thins, Claussen pickles Lu biscuits Philadelphia cream cheese Philadelphia cream cheese Kraft, Velveeta and Cracker Toblerone chocolate, Milka Barrel cheese candy bars, Cadbury, Green and Black’s Jell-O Trident/ Dentyne gum Cool Whip/Miracle Whip Halls A-1 steak sauce, Grey Poupon mustard Tang Vegemite Jacobs coffee Maxwell House coffee 888 Brand names in red are ‘power brands’ each generating revenue over USD 1 billion In North America, Maxwell House coffee is ‘grocery’ (Kraft Foods Group), but elsewhere coffee is Mondelēz.

  • The History of Kraft Foods Inc
    The History of Kraft Foods Inc. All About Kraft Learn everything there is to know about Kraft: like who we are, how you can reach us and what we’re doing in your community. Kraft Foods Inc. is a company with many different roots and founders, all sharing a commitment to quality, a willingness to take risks and a spirit of innovation. Among the products now sold by Kraft Foods Inc. are so many “firsts” and innovations that a history of the company is almost a history of the food industry. Kraft traces its history to three of the most successful food entrepreneurs of the late 19th and early 20th centuries — J.L. Kraft, who started his cheese business in 1903; C.W. Post, who founded Postum Cereal Company (later renamed General Foods Corporation) in 1895; and Oscar Mayer, who began his meat business in 1883. The Story of J.L. Kraft The history of KRAFT goes back to 1903, when, with $65 in capital, a rented wagon and a horse named Paddy, J.L. Kraft started purchasing cheese at Chicago’s Water Street wholesale market and reselling it to local merchants. Within a short time, four of J.L. Kraft’s brothers joined him in the business, and, in 1909, they incorporated as J.L. Kraft & Bros. Co. In 1914, J.L. Kraft and his brothers purchased their first cheese factory in Stockton, Illinois. In 1915, they began producing processed cheese in 3-1/2 and 7-3/4 ounce tins. J.L. Kraft’s method of producing processed cheese was so revolutionary, in 1916 he obtained a patent for it and in 1917 the company started supplying cheese in tins to the U.S.

    Contacts: Kris Charles (Media) Mark Magnesen (Investors) 847-646-6251 847-646-3194 [email protected] [email protected] Kraft Foods Inc. Reports Third Quarter 2005 Results • Top-line momentum improves with net revenues up 4.4% and ongoing constant currency revenues up 3.6% • Diluted E.P.S. from continuing operations down 11.1% to $0.40 due to significantly higher commodity and energy costs and a prior year tax favorability; results in both years include $0.02 in exit and implementation costs for the restructuring program • Full-year 2005 earnings guidance reduced to $1.68 - $1.71, reflecting higher than expected energy, packaging and dairy costs NORTHFIELD, IL – October 18, 2005 – Kraft Foods Inc. (NYSE: KFT), a global leader in branded food and beverages, today announced third quarter 2005 results. Net revenues grew 4.4% in the quarter, with ongoing constant currency revenues up 3.6% from broad-based growth in North America, Europe and developing markets. Top-line growth reflected a balance of volume gains, positive product mix and commodity-driven price increases. Despite the solid top-line growth, third quarter diluted earnings per share from continuing operations declined 11.1% to $0.40 due to higher commodity and energy costs and a prior year tax favorability. As a result of higher than projected commodity costs that continue to impact the overall food industry, as well as the company’s decision to balance top-line growth and cost recovery through pricing, full- year 2005 guidance for diluted earnings per share was reduced to $1.68 - $1.71 from $1.73 - $1.78.
