The plant, which is set to create just over 80 jobs, will produce its own brand of round and square-shaped chocolate-filled biscuits for supermarket retailers.


The plant will have a production capacity of 40,000 tonnes per year in the first-phase of development. Mondial Biscuits could raise annual capacity to 70,000 tonnes in the longer term, if according to its plans, the plant takes on a European distribution dimension.


Mondial Biscuits’ chief, Didier Chervin, also heads Continental Biscuits whose plant at Buhl, in proximity to Cernay, supplies biscuits for retailers’ own brands and also the low-price segment.
