Since 1906, a desire for innovation and commitment to being the best has guided Kellogg Company. From being the first company to offer premiums in its cereal boxes to being the first to fortify its cereals, Kellogg has historically been a leader in industry, innovation and marketing.

The spirit of Kellogg Company is based on continual improvement in products and processes, with the goal of providing great-tasting, nutritious products that meet the most rigorous quality standards.

The company that today makes breakfast for millions began in Battle Creek, Mich., in 1906 with just 44 employees. Today it employs more than 26,000 people worldwide, manufactures in 17 countries and sells its globally diverse products in 180 nations.

Kellogg icons such as Tony the Tiger™, Snap! Crackle! Pop!™ and Ernie Keebler™ are among the most recognized characters in advertising.
