Winston Score History

The full picture

Mondelez International makes snacks and candy that people buy at grocery stores, convenience stores, and online around the world. Its most famous brands include Oreo cookies, Cadbury chocolate, Trident gum, Ritz crackers, and Toblerone. It is one of the largest snack food companies on the planet, selling to everyday consumers in over 150 countries.

The company earns money by manufacturing and selling packaged snacks to retailers, who then sell them to shoppers. Most of its revenue comes from outside the United States, with strong sales in Europe, Latin America, and emerging markets like India and Brazil. Its competitive edge comes from owning well-known brands that shoppers trust and repeatedly buy. The biggest risk the company faces is the rising cost of cocoa and other ingredients, which has been squeezing profit margins and forcing difficult decisions about pricing that could slow consumer demand.
