Company history

Mondelez International’s corporate roots trace to James L. Kraft’s Chicago cheese business, founded in 1903. Kraft acquired Nabisco in 2000, adding major biscuit brands to its portfolio; Oreo had been introduced in 1912.[20]+2

Kraft acquired control of Cadbury in 2010. In 2012, it separated its North American grocery business from its global snacks business; the spin-off was completed on October 1, and the remaining company became Mondelez International.[23]+2

In 2014–15, the company expanded into Vietnam through its acquisition of a majority stake in Kinh Do’s snacks business, and acquired Enjoy Life Foods in 2015. Dirk Van de Put succeeded Irene Rosenfeld as CEO in 2017.[26]+3

The company acquired Hu in 2021 and Chipita, a maker of baked snacks, in 2022. In 2023, it completed the sale of its developed-market gum business; in 2024, it completed the acquisition of a majority stake in Chinese cakes and pastries maker Evirth.[30]+3 [20]+13
