Its affiliated company, Bagley Latin America SA, is of equal renown in Argentina, producing one of the most famous cracker brands in the region-Traviata. This variety of cracker is a staple in Argentinian meals, similar to bread for Europeans, in this manner, Traviata crackers are central to Argentinian consumers of all ages: Children bring them to school, adults consume them with coffee, and everyone uses them to accompany various types of food. To produce these crackers, Bagley established one of its five cracker production plants in Salto, Province of Buenos Aires, Argentina, referred to as Salto II. The plant has provided 1,000 new jobs since its opening and produces 24,000 tons of Traviata crackers per year to keep up with consumer demand.
