about us

We are currently the world’s biggest confectionary company with a number one or number two position in 20 of the 50 largest confectionary markets across the globe.

We make, market and sell unique brands, which give pleasure to millions of people around the world every day. We are recognised as a highly respected company and an employer of choice with over 50,000 staff worldwide.

With origins stretching back over 200 years, today our products – which include brands such as Cadbury, Halls, Trident, Dentyne and Bubbaloo – are enjoyed in almost every country around the world.

Our heritage starts back in 1824 when John Cadbury opened a shop in Birmingham selling cocoa and chocolate. Since then we have expanded our business throughout the world by a programme of organic and acquisition led growth.

On the 7 May 2008, the separation of our confectionery and Americas Beverages businesses was completed bringing almost four decades of history as Cadbury Schweppes to an end.

As Cadbury plc, our purpose continues to be to work together to create brands people love. You are sure to be fans of at least some of our famous brands www.cadbury.com
