The food group, whose portfolio includes Cadbury chocolate, Toblerone and Oreos cookies, claimed that it has been committed to reducing sugar, salt and saturated fat in its products, as well as cutting calories from children’s confectionery.
The US-based company witnessed prosperity during lockdown as people sought out comfort foods such as chocolate and biscuits, while its sweets and gum brands (usually bought ‘on the go’) saw a decline.
In the UK – Mondelēz’s second largest market – the government recently announced tighter anti-obesity measures, such as a curb on adverts for food high in fat, sugar and salt before 9pm.

“We are very open to work with governments on any objectives that they have,” said Mr Van de Put, adding: “I’m a bit hesitant that sometimes the authorities want to go too far, want to be too restrictive, too prescriptive to the consumer. [We want] a joint campaign trying to educate rather than restrict.”
