Mondelez lays cornerstone for $90 million biscuit plant in Bahrain
Mondelez International, Deerfield, IL, recently laid the cornerstone for construction of its new $90 million biscuit plant in Bahrain, as it seeks to tap rising demand in the Middle East and Africa for company brands such as Oreo, Ritz and TUC biscuits.
The company announced the project in October 2014. Full commercial production is scheduled to start early next year.
