Switzerland: Mondelez to invest in manufacturing facility

USA based snack and confectionery group Mondelez, has announced an investment of 65 million CHF ($80 million) to upgrade its Toblerone chocolate facility in Bern, Switzerland.

The investment is being made in the location where Toblerone was founded in 1908, and where around 90% of Toblerone products sold worldwide are still manufactured.

A production line that will expand capacity for chocolate manufacture is scheduled to be operative by autumn 2025, while Mondelez will also enhance its chocolate and nougat making facility, upgrading site infrastructure and logistics.

“Toblerone is one of the most famous chocolate brands in the world with tremendous potential”, commented Iain Livingston, president, Toblerone & World Travel Retail at Mondelez. “Our center of excellence in Switzerland, from where we proudly bring our brand and chocolate expertise around the world, is key to the brand’s growth ambition to win in the premium segment”.
