Industry News

Cadbury is the world's biggest confectionery company with a number one or number two position in 20 of
the 50 largest confectionery markets across the globe. We create chocolate, gum and candy brands
people love brands like Cadbury, Trident and Halls.
Purple Goes Green
In July 2007 Cadbury launched our vision for the year 2020, Purple Goes Green, which is our absolute
commitment to action on climate change. This stated our intention to shrink our global environmental
footprint and set new targets building on the commitments made in our 2006 CSR report (when we
committed to develop a reliance on renewable energy; reduce carbon based fuels and use 100%
recoverable or biodegradable packaging).
"We recognise that if we are serious about tackling climate change, we need to be "absolutely"
committed. This means re-thinking the way we do business, embedding sustainability into every decision
we take. Not only will this have a strong social and environmental impact but also a positive economic
impact too in the longer term.
