Dairy Milk chocolate, introduced by [[George Cadbury Jr|George Jr]] in 1905, used a higher proportion of milk in the recipe than rival products. By 1914, it was the company's best-selling product.

The brand's popularity grew such that in 1926, the South African arm of Cadbury was formed and plans were made to construct a local chocolate manufacturing plant. Cadbury broke ground with a chocolate plant in [[Port Elizabeth]] in 1930. By 1938, the first locally produced moulded Cadbury Dairy Milk chocolate slabs were produced. The first slabs of chocolate produced were the ''Milk, Nut Milk, Milk Fruit, Nut Brazil, Fruit & Nut and Bournville'' variety of Cadbury products. In the 1950s, the Port Elizabeth factory was expanded to include a new laboratory in order to start producing new products, such as the ''Flake'' and ''Crunchie Bar'' (1960s). By the 1970s, the factory was expanded again to add a new Raw Materials Store and crumb silos. These have since become a local landmark. The same factory still produces some of the supply of Cadbury chocolate in South Africa.<ref name=":2" /> In 2011, [[Kraft Foods]], the company that then owned Cadbury, announced that it would be launching a fair-trade Dairy Milk chocolate bar on the South African market. The product had been available in other countries where Cadbury operated since 2009. The South African operation of Cadbury has a completely Africa-based supply chain, with cocoa beans bought in [[Ghana]] and the chocolate bars made in the factory at Port Elizabeth.<ref>{{cite press release |author=<!--Staff writer(s); no by-line.--> |title=Kraft Foods announces launch of fair trade Cadbury chocolate bar in South Africa |url=https://agritrade.cta.int/en/Agriculture/Topics/Product-differentiation/Kraft-Foods-announces-launch-of-fair-trade-Cadbury-chocolate-bar-in-South-Africa.html |date=9 August 2011 |access-date=9 October 2020}}</ref> ==Advertising== [[File:Cadbury World sign, Bournville.JPG|thumb|left|225px|The signature logo as displayed at [[Cadbury World]] in Bournville, England.

The first slabs of chocolate produced were the ''Milk, Nut Milk, Milk Fruit, Nut Brazil, Fruit & Nut and Bournville'' variety of Cadbury products. - -In the 1950s, the Port Elizabeth factory was expanded to include a new laboratory in order to start producing new products, such as the ''Flake'' and ''Crunchie Bar'' (1960s). By the 1970s, the factory was expanded again to add a new Raw Materials Store and crumb silos. These have since become a local landmark. The same factory still produces some of the supply of Cadbury chocolate in South Africa.<ref name=":2" /> - -In 2011, [[Kraft Foods]], the company that then owned Cadbury, announced that it would be launching a fair-trade Dairy Milk chocolate bar on the South African market.

In 2003, Cadbury established a tourist attraction on the premises of the Dunedin factory known as [[Cadbury World]], which featured a large chocolate waterfall. In 2007, Cadbury closed down its Auckland factory, leading to the loss of 200 jobs. In 2009, the Cadbury Dunedin factory attracted criticism from consumers and local environmentalists when it replaced [[cocoa butter]] with palm oil. In response, the company backtracked but still retained palm oil as a filling in some ingredients. Over the next several years, Cadbury began downsizing its products, including trimming chocolate blocks in 2015.<ref>{{cite news |title=The bitter aftertaste to Cadbury's closing |url=https://www.odt.co.nz/news/dunedin/bitter-aftertaste-cadburys-closing |access-date=9 October 2017 |agency=[[New Zealand Media and Entertainment]] |publisher=Otago Daily Times |date=23 February 2017}}</ref>', 261 => '', 262 => 'On 16 February 2017, it was reported that Cadbury would be closing its factory in Dunedin, New Zealand by March 2018.
