Mondelēz International is already the No. 1 biscuit maker in China with brands such as Oreo, Chips Ahoy! and TUC, company officials say. Leveraging consumer snacking trends around health and nutrition, the company is now bringing the very first breakfast biscuits to China. belVita has been one of the company’s most successful innovation platforms, officials add. Born in France as Petit Déjeuner, the company launched the belVita brand in 2010 and has expanded throughout Europe, Brazil, North America and Australia. Today, belVita is available in 54 countries and has become a global breakfast icon, generating over $600 million in revenues in 2014. “Consumers in both developed and emerging markets are increasingly interested in health and nutrition for themselves and for their families,” says Mark Clouse, executive vice president and chief growth officer. “We’re tapping into this trend and are determined to become the global leader in well-being snacks. Our goal is to have 50 percent of our portfolio in the well-being space by 2020, up from more than a third of total revenue today.” “As the market leader in biscuits, we want to make the biscuit category relevant to people who have health and wellness in mind. That’s why we’re bringing belVita, an entirely new global category, to China,” says Stephen Maher, president of Mondelēz China. “As more Chinese are shifting to modern breakfast options, we believe belVita breakfast biscuits offer a compelling benefit–nutrition, taste and convenience, delivering vitality throughout the morning.” BelVita breakfast biscuits are available in three flavors in China: milk & cereal, nuts & honey and mixed berry.
