The Kellogg Company, doing business as Kellogg's, was an American multinational food manufacturing company headquartered in Battle Creek, Michigan, United States. Kellogg's produces cereal and convenience foods, including crackers and toaster pastries, and markets their products by several well-known brands including Corn Flakes, Rice Krispies, Frosted Flakes, Pringles, Eggo, and Cheez-It. Kellogg's mission statement is "Nourishing families so they can flourish and thrive."[3]

Kellogg's products are manufactured and marketed in over 180 countries.[4] Kellogg's largest factory is at Trafford Park in Trafford, Greater Manchester, United Kingdom, which is also the location of its UK headquarters.[5] Other corporate office locations outside of Battle Creek include Chicago, Dublin (European Headquarters), Shanghai, and Querétaro City.[6] Kellogg's held a Royal Warrant from Queen Elizabeth II until her death in 2022.[7]

In October 2023, the company changed its name to Kellanova, and spunoff some assets into WK Kellogg Co.
