Poor

Mondelez owns Cadbury and Oreo, but its business behavior is less than sweet. Poor scores on climate change and water, more to be done on women’s rights and land use, though some positives around worker’s rights and farmers.

This is an International campaign. Cadbury is owned by Mondelez. In the United States the Cadbury trademark is licensed to Hershey's.

How are the scores formed?

We assessed publicly available information on the policies and commitments of the 'Big 10' food companies towards the sourcing of agricultural commodities from developing countries. The Scorecard looks at seven themes, weighing each theme equally. The index tackles some cutting edge issues that will require rigorous debate and dialogue between companies, civil society and industry experts. Find out more...

Land

Women

Score 2

Mondelez shows little awareness of issues faced by women producers and little appetite for tackling them. On the brighter side – it does run projects to support rural female workers.

Farmers

Score 4

Mondelez understands big issues faced by small-scale farmers, but its failure to insist that its suppliers support the farmers they buy from needs urgent attention.

Workers

Score 4

The good news? Mondelez is addressing important workers issues with help from a trade union. The bad news? It knows almost nothing about workers in its supply chain.

Climate

Score 3

An example to follow when it comes to measuring emissions, Mondelez scores poorly because it hasn’t set targets to reduce emissions from agriculture or offered to help farmers get ready for climate change.

Transparency

Score 4

Increasingly honest about its lobbying, Mondelez is otherwise elusive– disclosing little information about its own suppliers or their compliance with its code.

Water

Score 2

Trails behind most of the others. While Mondelez recognizes the importance of water, it doesn’t publish water guidelines for suppliers or disclose key stats about its own water use.
