About Mars
In 1911, Frank C. Mars made the first Mars candies in his Tacoma, Washington kitchen and established Mars’ first roots as a confectionery company. In the 1920s, Forrest E. Mars, Sr. joined his father in business and together they launched the Milky Way bar. In 1932, Forrest, Sr. moved to the United Kingdom with a dream of building a business based on the objective of creating a “mutuality of benefits for all stakeholders.” This objective still serves as the foundation of Mars, Incorporated today.
Headquartered in McLean, Virginia, Mars has net sales of more than $33 billion, six business segments including Pet Care, Chocolate, Wrigley, Food, Drinks, Symbioscience, and more than 75,000 employees worldwide.
