Häagen-Dazs, Yoplait, Old El Paso, Nature Valley, Cheerios, Green Giant, Pillsbury, Betty Crocker and Wanchai Ferry. These global brands increasingly are found in homes around the world, reflecting our dedication to quality and great taste.

In addition to global brands, we also market several local brands, such as Latina pasta in Australia, La Salteña pastas and tapas in Argentina, and Jus-Rol pastry in the U.K.

Europe continues to be our largest market, followed by our long-established operations in Canada. Today, Latin America is our fastest-growing region.

Reflecting the rapid growth of recent years, our International

group posted record sales in 2014. The heightened revenue has been fueled by existing businesses as well as acquisitions.

In fiscal 2012, we acquired a controlling interest in French-based Yoplait, setting the stage for expansion of the popular yogurt brand around the world. A year later, we completed the purchase of Brazilian food maker Yoki in a move that more than doubled General Mills’ annual sales in Latin America. Established in 1960, Yoki holds leading market positions in several food categories, including snacks, convenient meals, basic foods and seasonings.

The General Mills Convenience & Foodservice group provides a wide array of products to convenience stores and foodservice operators, including health care facilities, schools, restaurants, and colleges and universities.

The division’s six key platforms are cereal, yogurt, frozen breakfast, snacks, biscuits and baking mixes.

Our brands are known around the world for quality, starting with Gold Medal flour, which was launched in 1880 and to this day remains the No. 1 selling branded flour in the United States. Several of our other brands also occupy the No. 1 or No. 2 market positions – from Pillsbury refrigerated dough to Green Giant frozen vegetables, and from Cheerios cereal to Betty Crocker dessert mixes.

We’re one of the largest food companies in the world, marketing in more than 100 countries on six continents. About half of our 43,000 employees work outside the United States.

In fiscal 2014, our global net sales were $17.9 billion. We categorize sales into three core business segments: U.S. Retail, International, and Convenience & Foodservice.

A box of Cheerios sits on the kitchen table. A cup of Yoplait yogurt rests on the refrigerator shelf, and the sweet aroma of Pillsbury Cinnamon Rolls fills the room. It’s breakfast time in the U.S.

Throughout the day – and throughout the world – consumers turn to General Mills products.

The day may start with frozen pancakes in Mexico, Nature Valley granola bars

in India or a bowl of Fibre One cereal in Canada.

What’s for lunch? In China it’s a quick meal of Wanchai Ferry dumplings, while in the U.S., it’s a hot bowl of Progresso soup and an afternoon snack of Food Should Taste Good chips.

The dinner hour presents many choices. It’s lasagna made with Muir Glen organic tomatoes, served with a side of Green Giant green beans and a loaf of Pillsbury bread in homes

throughout America. It’s an Old El Paso Mexican meal in France and a Brazilian barbecue served with Yoki’s farofa on the side.

An after-dinner or special occasion treat is the perfect way to end the day. It’s a scoop of Häagen-Dazs ice cream in dozens of countries, including Japan, Indonesia and Spain. And it’s a Betty Crocker cake in Australia, Saudi Arabia and Taiwan.

A broad portfolio satisfies consumers around the world.
