belVita is a prominent global brand of breakfast biscuits, specifically designed to provide sustained energy. The brand's journey began in France in 1998, originally launched under the name 'LU Petit Déjeuner' by the company Générale Biscuit (later part of Danone and then Kraft Foods). Since its introduction, the product has expanded significantly across international markets, reaching the United Kingdom and the United States around 2012, where it quickly became a leader in the 'healthy' biscuit category.

Ownership of the brand transitioned to Mondelēz International following the corporate split of Kraft Foods Inc. in 2012. Today, Mondelēz International, headquartered in Chicago, USA, remains the ultimate owner. For the United Kingdom and Ireland markets, the product is typically managed through the subsidiary Mondelēz UK, based in Birmingham. Manufacturing for the European market, including the specific Cocoa with choc chips variety shown, is primarily concentrated in the Czech Republic, though the brand utilizes a global supply chain to serve its various territories.
