Oreos Inside Reese's. Reese's Inside Oreos. It's the Manhattan Project of Snacks.
Senior employees from sweets-and-snacks giant Mondelez MDLZ -0.91%decrease; red down pointing triangle slipped into a conference room at the Pennsylvania headquarters of archrival Hershey on a spring day three years ago. They were there to discuss a merger. The tie-up on the table wasn't a typical corporate combination. Hershey makes Reese's peanut butter cups. Mondelez makes Oreo cookies. It was time, the companies decided, to unite them. Hershey would infuse Oreos into its nutty confection, and Mondelez would fill Oreos with Reese's peanut butter, finally satisfying the cravings of the brands' most ardent fans.

Mondelēz 2024 Snacking Made Right Report: Energy
Driving down our energy emissions through electrification and transitioning to renewable energy as well as our efforts towards more energy efficient processes is part of reaching our long-term goal of net-zero carbon further expanding the sustainability of our operations. HIGHLIGHTS STRATEGIC APPROACH Our three key strategic areas: ACTION PLANS AND PROGRESS In our transition to electrification, our Viana bakery plant in Spain achieved in September 2024 an exciting and historic milestone where for the first-time ever, our beloved Oreo cookies were baked in a fully electric oven. The oven's innovative features bring significant benefits, including lower energy consumption, minimal energy loss due to exhaust gases, and no combustion gases – resulting in lower emission baking. This remarkable achievement marks another important step toward our sustainability goals. Installing heat pumps to provide hot water is part of our tactical approach towards our decarbonization goal. During 2024 we continued expanding this technology in our operations. Our Skarbimierz plant in Poland and Bludenz plant in Austria replaced boilers with heat pumps for hot water supply, the latter achieved an approximately 60% reduction in the annual gas consumption of the site. Our commitment to increasing the use of renewable electricity is progressing as in 2024 we reached approximately 54% of renewable electricity usage globally.(31) Also, during 2024, new renewable electricity purchasing agreements were signed in Poland and Mexico, the latter takes Latin America to approximately 89% of renewable electricity consumption During 2024 eight sites globally installed solar panels to supply electricity to our sites, helping these facilities to reduce and offset CO2 emissions. With this addition Mondelēz International has a total of 34 sites with solar energy generation which is approximately 100% renewable source. GOALS AND METRICS We attained our goal of CO2e emissions reductions across our manufacturing operations by 2025 (vs. 2018). View the full 2024 Snacking Made Right Report.
