Cadbury's factory, Marlbrook

The factory lies to the east of the A49 and is positioned between the A road and the River Lugg. The factory became infamous in 2006 as an outbreak of salmonella caused the recall of over a million chocolate bars. The factory processes 180 million litres of fresh milk, 56,000 tonnes of sugar and 13,000 tonnes of cocoa liquor into chocolate crumb which is then transported to other sites at Bournville, near Birmingham, and Somerdale, near Bristol, where it is blended with cocoa butter and turned into milk chocolate.
