According to Mondelez, production of 12,000 tonnes of chocolate – equivalent to 125 million bars – will be relocated from Germany and other European sites to Birmingham beginning next year. It was established in 2011 after Cadbury’s former owner Kraft demerged its grocery business.
The move means that the majority of Dairy Milk will be produced at the Birmingham plant beginning next year, adding to the 35,000 tonnes produced there in 2020.
