History
1800–1900: Early history
1891 advertisement
John Cadbury's sons Richard and George
took over the business in 1861.[8] At the
time of the takeover, the business was in
rapid decline: the number of employees
had reduced from 20 to 11, and the
company was losing money.[8] By 1866,
Cadbury was profitable again.[8] The
brothers had turned around the business
by moving the focus from tea and coffee
to chocolate, and by increasing the quality
of their products.[8]

Advertising
The Cadbury signature logo is derived
from the signature of William Cadbury.[119]
It was adopted as the worldwide logo in
the 1970s.[119]
Executive pay
In 2008, Todd Stitzer, Cadbury's CEO, was
paid a £2,665,000 bonus. Combined with
his annual salary of £985,000 and other
payments of £448,000 this gives a total
remuneration of over £4 million.[124]
Accounting
In July 2007, Cadbury Schweppes
announced that it would be outsourcing its
transactional accounting and order
capture functions to Shared Business
Services (SBS) centres run by a company
called Genpact (a businesses services
provider) in India, China, and Romania.
This was to affect all business units and
be associated with US and UK functions
being transferred to India by the end of
2007, with all units transferred by mid-
2009. Depending on the success of this
move, other accounting Human Resources
functions may follow. This development is
likely to lead to the loss of several hundred
jobs worldwide, but also to several
hundred jobs being created, at lower
salaries commensurate with wages paid in
developing countries.[125]
Products
Controversies
2006 salmonella scare
2007 recalls
2009 hydrogenation
Cadbury continues to use hydrogenated
oils in many of its signature products.
Although trans fats are present, the
nutrition labels round the values down to
zero.[138]
