Cadbury Dairy Milk and Bournville Cocoa were to provide the basis for the company's rapid pre-war expansion. The closure of Cadbury factories in centres such as Dublin, Montreal, Chicago, Philadelphia, and Dunedin in New Zealand generated outcries from the local populations. Creme Eggs are only sold between New Year's Day and Easter—it is the most popular chocolate in the UK during this period, outselling its closest rival by 2 to 1. Staff at Keynsham criticised this move, suggesting that they felt betrayed and as if they have been "sacked twice".The acquisition of Cadbury faced widespread disapproval from the British public, as well as groups and organisations including trade union Unite, [58] who fought against the acquisition of the company which, according to Prime Minister Gordon Brown, was very important to the British economy. Following four weeks of consultations with local Cadbury employees, the Mayor of Dunedin Dave Cull, and local trade union representatives, Banfield confirmed that the closure would go ahead the following year due to the lack of viable options to continue production in New Zealand. By 1930, Cadbury was the 24th-largest British manufacturing company as measured by estimated market value of capital.

Cadbury cakes and chocolate spread are manufactured under licence by Premier Foods, but the cakes were originally part of Cadbury Foods Ltd with factories at Blackpole in Worcester and Moreton on the Wirral, with distribution depots throughout the UK. But the company, which was taken over by American food group Kraft two years ago, says it will only sell the product in warmer countries like India and Brazil because there is "no market" for it in the UK.
