Mondelēz International (MDLZ) today announced the inauguration of its Regional Biscuit and Baked Snacks Lab and Innovation Kitchen in Singapore, reaffirming its commitment to innovation and product development across Southeast Asia and Australia, New Zealand, and Japan. This new facility was officially opened today by Mr Chan Ih-Ming, Executive Vice President, Singapore Economic Development Board. 

The Lab and Innovation Kitchen will serve as a strategic Centre of Excellence and regional hub driving creative development and innovation in the biscuits and baked snacks category. Backed by more than $5 million USD investment, the facility expands on the capabilities of the company’s existing Singapore Technical Centre, established in 2006, followed by an expansion in 2018 to focus on innovation and product development in the gum and candy category.
