How Cereal Partners Started
Cereal Partners Worldwide, often called CPW, began in 1990. It was formed as a partnership between General Mills and Nestlé. Their goal was to make and sell popular breakfast cereals globally. This partnership helped them reach many more people.
Making Breakfast Cereals
CPW sells its cereals under the Nestlé brand name. Many of these cereals were first created by General Mills. Some cereals, like Shredded Wheat and Shreddies, were once made by another company called Nabisco. In Australia and New Zealand, some CPW products are sold under the Uncle Tobys brand.
Recent Changes in Branding
In 2022, CPW started selling some cereals under the General Mills brand. However, popular cereals like Trix still use the Nestlé brand. This shows how the company works with both parent brands.
