And many are not. Which is why, for example, Kelloggs make a point of
stating "We don't make cereal for anyone else".

However that does not necessarily mean that Portable Foods
Manufacturing Co Ltd does not supply both Kelloggs and ANOther. Even
if Portable Foods etc is wholly owned by Kelloggs.

I seem to remember that the quality own brand corn flakes are largely
made by one company (from memory, Robertsons). And wasn't there
something about them becoming a larger manufacturer of cornflakes that
Kelloggs some time ago?

Anyone see Jimmy doing his DIY cornflakes the other week?
