While Oreo was invented in the United States in 1912 by Nabisco, Borio is manufactured and distributed in Egypt by Family Nutrition.[1]

Kraft Foods Inc. acquired Nabisco in 2000 and Family Nutrition in 2003[2][1] so that both products were owned by the same company. In 2012, Kraft Foods became Mondelēz International.
