About us
Making food the world loves since 1866.
We started as a flour mill in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Today, General Mills is a global food company with more than 100 brands sold in over 100 countries. You’ll find our food in about 90% of U.S. households. More than 30,000 employees, alongside a network of farmers, suppliers and partners around the world, make that possible.
Cheerios on a busy morning. Progresso on a cold day. Old El Paso on taco night. Annie’s after school. Blue Buffalo for your beloved pet.
We make breakfast cereal, snacks, meals, refrigerated and frozen dough, baking mixes, premium ice cream and pet food for the moments that make up a day.
Good food has to fit into everyday life. Easy to find, easy to prepare and flexible enough to fit different households, budgets and dietary preferences.
We know it’s much more than what’s on a plate – it’s how our ingredients are grown by farmers, how our food is made with care and ultimately how it makes its way into someone’s home.
We pay attention to each step because the result is food people can count on.

Some of the plastic packaging you use every day can be recycled beyond your curbside bin. Here's how store drop-off programs make it easy.
From local school support to employee volunteerism, General Mills’ Minnesota roots have helped shape a longstanding commitment to stronger communities.
Because dogs are family, the Blue Buffalo Dinnerware Collection includes salad plates, dinner plates and a matching dog bowl and a coupon for free Love Made Fresh.
