Kent Confectionery (Mondelez Turkey)

Kent Gida Maddeleri Sanayii ve Ticaret A.S. is a confectionery and chewing gum maker belonging to the Mondelez International group. Its main shareholder is the group company Cadbury Schweppes Overseas, and only a small portion of the shares is held by the public. Traded on Borsa Istanbul under the ticker KENT, KENT stock is known for relatively limited trading volume because of this structure.

The company's production facilities are in the Gebze district of Kocaeli. Its activities cover the production and sale of chewing gum, confectionery and chocolate products, which reach the retail channel through a wide sales and distribution network. Being part of an international food group allows it to draw on group resources in product development and brand management.

For confectionery makers, sugar, cocoa and packaging costs, adjustments to consumer prices and competition in the retail channel are important. The low free float is a structural feature that can increase price volatility in the share. On Lzzo.com, KENT's past price movements and technical indicators can be followed.
