Kellogs to takeover Pringles from Procter&Gamble

http://www.pginvestor.com/phoenix.zh...cle&ID=1661239

Procter and Gamble is to get shut of its pringles brand to Kellogs!

This is an attempt by Kellogs to enter the savoury snacks market. In a few years, I think Kellogs will try and compete with Unilever and try to rival the Pot Noodle,Knorr,Marmite,Bovril,Birds Eye and Boursin brands which Unilever own.

Procter and Gamble has made it clear that it wants to stick to health care and beauty brands, In 1989 it acquired Sunny Delight and introduced it to the UK, but because of its natural colouring and high vitamin a content, the child induced 4 litres in a 24 hour period storing the Vitamin A content beneath skin appearing tanned. This made people to believe it was bad for health and then they sold it off to a new company who has reduced the Sugar content and made it more suitable for everyone.

Procter and gamble also sold off its vegetable oil brand, Criscan and next I expect them to offload Folgers Coffee, both of these brands are not currently sold or distributed in the UK as of yet.

There was a rumour that Procter and Gamble was to acquire Unilever, although I don't think it would be allowed due to competition reasons.

Procter and Gamble brands:

Always
Wella
Fairy
Bold
Daz
Vortex Bleach
Ariel
Dreft
Tide (Not sold in the UK)
Flash
Viakal
Charmin/Cushelle
Bounty/Plenty
Boss Fragrances

Lacoste fragrances
Ivory (Not sold in the UK)
Mum deodrant (Brand ownership only,manufactured by another company)
Gillete
Oral-B
Crest
Pampers
Huggies
Pantene
Wash and Go
Ambi-pur
Iams and Eukanuba pet food
Lenor/Downy
Noxzema
Nice and Easy
Olay
Max Factor
P&G pharmaceuticals

and many more.....

Unilever:

Axe/Lynx
Lux
Persil (UK,Ireland,France and New Zealand only)
Surf
Vaseline
Sure (UK only)
Impulse
Signal toothpaste
SR Mentadent
Ponds
Pears (Hindustan Unilever)
Lifebouy soap (Not in the UK)
Timotei

Sunsilk
Comfort
Knorr

I still think the same group of people still own Sunny Delight

very funny Sunny Delight Beverages and P&G are based on the same town same area. What are the odds, the same shareholders have shares in SDBC.
