Cadbury plc was the listed British confectionery company taken over by Kraft Foods in 2010 after a contested bid.
Kraft Foods won a hostile takeover of Cadbury after a five-month battle, closing at 840 pence per share in cash and shares. Kraft closed the Somerdale factory it had promised to keep open, which led to criticism in Parliament and changes to the UK takeover code. Cadbury passed to Mondelēz in the 2012 split.
Cadbury plc controlled this brand in the past. Each row shows when the ownership ended and who holds the brand now, so a page that once said Cadbury plc owned it still shows why it no longer does.
