## About <!--about-->
Weetabix is the masterbrand of Weetabix Limited, the Northamptonshire cereal maker that has produced its wheat-biscuit cereal at Burton Latimer since 1932 and exports it to more than eighty countries.[^wikiwb] The company's brand list also covers Alpen, Weetos, Oatibix and Ready Brek.[^maker] On a Ready Brek box the Weetabix logo signs the front above the product brand, which is why the barcode is filed under this brand rather than a separate one.[^offfront]
