Mexico City, October 7th, 2020 – Enel Green Power México (EGPM), the renewables subsidiary of Enel Group, joins the celebration of the 8th anniversary of Mondelēz International in the country, by commemorating two years of successful collaboration through an electric power supply contract.

One agrees to use a certain name and issues an order to that effect, and if the agreement is abided by and becomes a matter of custom, then the name may be said to be appropriate… Names have no intrinsic reality.” What could Naturalism Mean? Now the letter r, as I was saying, appeared to the imposer of names an excellent instrument for the expression of motion; and he frequently uses the letter for this purpose: for example, in the actual words rein and roe he represents motion by r; also in the words tromos (trembling), trachus (rugged); and again, in words

  • Kraft Foods Nurtures the Next Generation of Dominican Cocoa Farmers with Launch of Cocoa Partnership
    October 17, 2011 Kraft Foods Nurtures The Next Generation Of Dominican Cocoa Farmers With Launch Of Cocoa Partnership Partners with United States Agency For International Development (USAID) Five-Year Plan Will Help 10,000 Small-Scale Farmers NORTHFIELD, Ill., Oct. 17, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Kraft Foods (NYSE) is launching its successful Cocoa Partnership to the Dominican Republic in a five-year commitment with the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). Working together, the Cocoa Partnership and USAID hope to increase the yield and quality of Dominican cocoa, while improving farmer livelihoods and communities. The program will reach 10,000 small-scale cocoa farmers of the Conacado cooperative with training on farming techniques, post-harvest practices and supplemental income opportunities. The Cocoa Partnership – established by Cadbury in 2008 – has committed 45 million pounds Sterling (approximately $70 million) to invest in cocoa farming in Ghana, India, Southeast Asia and the Caribbean over 10 years. The program is already in 100 Ghanaian communities, with plans to double in size by year-end. The Partnership has forged successful alliances with The Ghana Cocoa Board and Kuapa Kokoo, a Fairtrade co-op comprised of 60,000 farmers and their families. "As we've seen in Ghana, the Cocoa Partnership's success depends on the collaborations we establish," said Bharat Puri, Senior Vice President, Global Chocolate, Kraft Foods. "The challenges facing today's cocoa farmer cannot be solved by any one company or organization. Only by working together – public and private sectors along with farmers and civil society – will we be able to make the difference that's needed." "Public-private partnerships like this one are a key part of USAID's development strategy in the Latin American and Caribbean region, because it has benefits for all the stakeholders," said Mark Feierstein, USAID's Assistant Administrator for Latin America and the Caribbean.

It proves success is within reach of us all in spite of the adversities. This report is the culmination of an in-depth review of around 12,000 new product initiatives that launched in Western Europe between 2011 and 2013.

NORTHFIELD, Ill. – January 30, 2008 – Kraft Foods Inc. (NYSE: KFT) today reported fourth-quarter and full-year 2007 results that reflect accelerated revenue growth in the first year of its three-year transformation plan. Volume growth improved as the year progressed due to the company’s investments in quality, innovation and brand building. However, volume and pricing gains were not able to fully offset significantly higher input costs, primarily dairy, and the company's investments, resulting in earnings declines for fourth quarter and full year. “We are off to an excellent start in our efforts to return Kraft to reliable growth,” said Irene Rosenfeld, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We’ve shown that our investments in product quality, marketing and innovation lead to accelerated volume growth, better product mix and improved market share trends. At the same time, we’ve significantly reduced our cost structure and strengthened our portfolio with the acquisition of Danone’s global biscuit business and the announcement to exit the Post cereal business.
