	Cadbury Schweppes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Cadbury Schweppes plc is a confectionery and beverage company with its headquarters in London.
		The company came under minor criticism for failing to have any Fairtrade products and so Cadbury Schweppes bought out organic chocolate maker Green and Black's in 2005 from their original 5% stake (it is also notable that none of its major competitors (Nestlé, Mars et al.) have Fairtrade branded chocolate either).
		After John Cadbury's retirement, his sons, Richard and George, opened a major factory in the purpose-built suburb of Bournville, four miles south of the city.
