Oreo is a world-renowned brand of sandwich cookies, recognized globally for its distinctive design of two cocoa biscuits with a sweet cream filling. Originally introduced by the National Biscuit Company (Nabisco) in 1912 in New York City, it was created as a competitor to the Hydrox cookie. Over more than a century, Oreo has evolved from a local American snack into the world's best-selling cookie brand, available in over 100 countries.

Ownership of the brand has transitioned through several major corporate mergers and spin-offs. In 2000, Kraft Foods acquired Nabisco, and in 2012, Kraft spun off its global snack business into a new entity called Mondelēz International. Today, Mondelēz International remains the ultimate owner and global powerhouse behind the brand. Manufacturing is highly decentralized to meet global demand, with major production facilities located in the United States, Spain, Mexico, China, and 14 other countries, ensuring that the product maintains a consistent flavor profile and quality worldwide.
