ИсторияВсе началось в 1911 году, когда молодой человек по имени Фрэнк Марс основал в США небольшую компанию по производству и продаже кондитерских изделий. Первый большой успех пришел в 1923 году с изобретением батончика MILKY WAY® (сейчас в России мы знаем его под брендом MARS®). Покрыв шоколадную молочную нугу карамелью и залив ее шоколадом, Фрэнк и его сын Форрест сгустили популярный в то время молочный коктейль в удобную форму шоколадного батончика.Глобальный MarsMars является одной из ведущих международных компаний в секторе FMCG (товары народного потребления), имеющей подразделения по производству кондитерских изделий, ряда других видов продуктов питания, кормов для домашних животных, торговых автоматов и электроники.Компания включает в себя более 175 предприятий более чем в 60 странах, где работают свыше 30 тысяч сотрудников. Ее продукция реализуется более чем в 100 странах на всех пяти континентах. При этом Mars по-прежнему является частным предприятием.Mars принадлежат такие известные марки, как SNICKERS®, MARS®, TWIX®, BOUNTY®, SKITTLES®, UNCLE BEN’S®, PEDIGREE®, WHISKAS®, CHAPPI®, KITEKAT® и др.
