Joined by 14 employees from five continents, chairman and CEO Irene Rosenfeld rang the opening bell on The NASDAQ Global Select Market to mark the second day of trading under the company’s new ticker symbol MDLZ.
Kraft Foods changed its name to Mondel?z International, after spinning-off its North American grocery business.
Rosenfeld said: “This is a very special day. We’re making our debut as Mondelez International and unleashing a global snacking powerhouse that’s uniquely positioned to delight consumers.
“We’re the world’s greatest start-up. Out of the gate, we have $3bn in revenue and leading positions in every market in which we compete. What’s more, our brands have been loved by consumers around the world for generations.”
