The Australian Federation of Ukrainian Organisations (AFUO) is urging Australians to boycott CadburyAU this Easter and, in partnership with the B4Ukraine global coalition, demands that its parent company, Mondelez International, stop doing business in russia.
Mondelez (MDLZ), the US multinational that owns Cadbury, is one of the most prominent global companies still operating in russia – despite its ongoing war of aggression against Ukraine.
In 2023 alone, Mondelez made over US$1.4 billion in russia, and paid at least US$62 million in taxes to the Kremlin. According to B4Ukraine, this places Mondelez among the top 20 foreign companies contributing to Russia’s war budget – effectively helping to fund its genocidal war machine.
By continuing to profit from the russian market, Mondelez is also putting profit over principles – and tarnishing Cadbury’s name, once known for ethical business practices.
In December 2024, King Charles even stripped Cadbury of its royal warrant for the first time in 170 years.
