HISTORY OF CADBURY-
In 1824, John Cadbury began to sell tea, coffee and drinking chocolate from his premises in
Birmingham. Cadbury developed the business with his brother Benjamin, and later his sons
Richard and George. George developed the Bournville estate, a model village designed to
improve the living conditions of company employees. Dairy Milk chocolate, introduced in 1905,
used a higher proportion of milk within the recipe compared with rival products. By 1914, the
chocolate was the company's best-selling product.
Cadbury merged with J. S. Fry & Sons in 1919, and Schweppes in 1969. Cadbury was a constant
constituent of the FTSE 100 from the index's 1984 inception until the company was bought by
Kraft Foods in 2010.
The following years passed with increasing popularity of the company with launch of its new
productsFlake and Crunchie.In 1939 however due to the second world war the raw materials
were rationed. Manufacturers were banned to use fresh milk and chocolates were made using dry
skimmed milk powder. After the war however the company worked hard to restore its business
and expanded their biscuit range. In 1948 Cadbury launched Fudge. In 1957,the company was
successful in launching its first tv advertisement. In the following years the company introduced
many new products in market like Skippy, lucky numbers and Aztec Bars.
Presently Cadbury is the second largest confectionary brand of sweets & chocolates in the world
winning hearts of millions of customers every day.
