Kraft Foods Inc. Company Profile
Mac & cheese if you please. Kraft Foods is the #1 US food company and #2 worldwide (after Nestlé). Its North America unit makes the world's largest-selling cheese brand (Kraft), owns cookie and cracker baker (Nabisco), and sells the milk-dunking favorite, Oreos; its international business unit offers many of the same brands plus national favorites. Its Oscar Mayer, Kraft, Philadelphia, Maxwell House, Nabisco, Oreo, Jacobs, Milka, and LU brands all have revenues of at least $1 billion; more than 50 of its brands regularly hit the $100 million mark. Having sold Post cereals in 2008, Kraft set its sights on candy, offering to buy Cadbury in late 2009. Warren Buffet's Berkshire Hathaway owns 9.4% of Kraft.
