Indicate by check mark whether the Registrant (1) has filed all
reports required to be filed by Section 13 or 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 during the preceding 12 months
(or for such shorter period that the Registrant was required to
file such reports), and (2) has been subject to such filing
requirements for the past 90 days. Yes X. No .

Indicate by check mark if disclosure of delinquent filers
pursuant to Item 405 of Regulations S-K (Section 229.405 of this
chapter) is not contained herein, and will not be contained, to
the best of registrant's knowledge, in definitive proxy or

this Form 10-K or any amendment to this Form 10-K.



As of February 18, 1994, there were outstanding 90,639,703
shares of Common Stock, no par value, and the aggregate market
value of the Common Stock (based upon the closing price of the
stock on the New York Stock Exchange on such date) held by
non-affiliates was approximately $2,663,970,454. As of February
18, 1994, there were outstanding 25,760,786 shares of Class B
Common Stock, no par value. Class B Common Stock is not traded
on the exchanges, is restricted as to transfer or other
disposition, and is convertible into Common Stock on a
share-for-share basis. Upon such conversion, the resulting
shares of Common Stock are freely transferable and publicly
traded. Assuming all shares of outstanding Class B Common Stock
were converted into Common Stock, the aggregate market value of
Common Stock held by non-affiliates on February 18, 1994 (based
upon the closing price of the stock on the New York Stock
Exchange on such date) would have been approximately
$3,073,163,867. Determination of stock ownership by
non-affiliates was made solely for the purpose of this
requirement, and the Registrant is not bound by these
determinations for any other purpose.

Certain sections of the Registrant's definitive Proxy
Statement, dated February 8, 1994, for the March 8, 1994 Annual
Meeting of Stockholders and of the 1993 Annual Report to
Stockholders are incorporated by reference into portions of Parts
I, II, III and IV of this Report.



PART I

Item 1. Business

(a) General Development of Business.

(1) General information. From 1891 to 1903, the Company
was operated as a partnership until its incorporation in Illinois
as Wm. Wrigley, Jr. & Co. in December, 1903. In November, 1910,
the Company was reincorporated under West Virginia law as Wm.
Wrigley Jr. Company, and in October, 1927, was reincorporated
under Delaware law.

Throughout its history, the Company has concentrated on one
principal line of business: the manufacturing and marketing of
quality chewing gum products.

(2) Not applicable.

(b) Financial Information About Industry Segments.

The Company's principal business of manufacturing and
selling chewing gum constitutes more than 90% of its consolidated
worldwide sales and revenues. All other businesses constitute
less than 10% of its consolidated revenues, operating profit and
identifiable assets.

(c) Narrative Description of Business.

(1) Business conducted. Following is a description of the
business conducted and intended to be conducted by the Company
and its wholly-owned associated companies (the Company):

(i) Principal products, markets and methods of
distribution. The Company's principal business is the
manufacture and sale of chewing gum, both in the United
States and abroad.

The Company's brands manufactured and available in the
United States are: WRIGLEY'S SPEARMINT, DOUBLEMINT, JUICY
FRUIT and BIG RED, which account for a majority of the
Company's sales volume; FREEDENT, available in three
flavors, a specially formulated chewing gum which does not
stick to most types of dental work; and EXTRA sugarfree
chewing gum, containing NUTRASWEET* brand sweetener,
available in four flavors and as bubble gum.

Except for BIG RED, which has limited availability
overseas, these six Wrigley brands are also commonly
available in many international markets in various flavors.
Additional brands manufactured and marketed abroad are:
ARROWMINT, COOL CRUNCH, DULCE 16, JUICY FRUIT and P.K,
chewing gums in sugar coated pellet form, FREEDENT and ORBIT
sugarfree gums and BIG BOY, HUBBA BUBBA and BIG G, all
standard bubble gum products.

The Company's ten largest markets outside of the United
States in 1993 were Australia, Canada, China, France,
Germany, Mexico, Philippines, Russia, Taiwan and the United
Kingdom.


*NUTRASWEET is a registered trademark of The NutraSweet
Company for its brand of sweetening ingredient.



Finished chewing gum is manufactured in four factories
in the United States and nine factories in other countries.
Three domestic wholly owned associated companies
manufacture products other than finished chewing gum. The
Amurol Products Company manufactures and markets primarily
children's bubble gum items including BIG LEAGUE CHEW,
BUBBLE TAPE and other uniquely packaged confections. Amurol
markets HUBBA BUBBA in the United States under a licensing
agreement with the parent company. Various non-gum items,
such as a line of suckers, dextrose candy, liquid gel candy
and hard roll candies are an important part of Amurol's
total business. REED'S individually wrapped hard roll
candies, first introduced in 1893, was acquired by Amurol
Products Company in 1989. Amurol is also more actively
developing export markets, the largest being Canada, Mexico
and Japan. The principal business of the L.A. Dreyfus
Company is the production of chewing gum base, at one
domestic and one overseas factory, for the parent and wholly
owned associated companies, and for other manufacturers of
chewing gum and specialty gum products in the United States
and abroad. Northwestern Flavors, Inc. processes flavorings
and rectifies mint oil for the parent and associated
companies and, as a small portion of its business, also
manufactures flavorings and other ingredients for
food-related industries.

In 1979, the Company organized its domestic converting
operations, under the name of Wrico Packaging Division, as a
separate operating unit of the Company. This division was
created to help further the Company's capability to produce
improved packaging materials. Currently, Wrico produces
about 35% of the Company's domestic printed and other
wrapping supplies.

The Company markets chewing gum primarily through
wholesalers, corporate chains and cooperative buying groups
that distribute the product through retail outlets.
Additional direct customers are vending distributors,
concessionaires and other established customers purchasing
in wholesale quantities. Customer orders are usually
received by mail or telephone and are shipped by truck from
factory warehouses or leased warehousing facilities.
Consumer purchases at the retail level are generated
primarily through the Company's advertisements on television
and radio, and in newspapers and magazines.

(ii) New products. In 1993, EXTRA in chlorophyll and
menthol flavors was introduced in France and was introduced
in spearmint and peppermint flavors in Hong Kong. In
Australia and New Zealand, currant-flavored HUBBA BUBBA was
introduced.

(iii) Sources and availability of raw materials.
Natural gums and rosins and synthetic raw materials blended
to make chewing gum base are readily available from private
contractors and in the open market. The Company has also
developed high quality, totally synthetic bases, all the
components of which are readily available in the open
market.

Sugar, corn syrup, flavoring oils and aspartame are
obtained in the open market, or under contracts, from
suppliers in the United States. All other ingredients and
necessary packaging materials are also purchased on the open
market and are readily available.

(iv) Patents and trademarks. The Company holds
numerous patents relating to packaging, manufacturing
processes and product formulas. Approximately a dozen
patents relating to product formula and sweetener
encapsulation, primarily for sugarfree gum, are deemed of
material significance to the Company. Most of these patents
expire in the countries in which they are registered at
various times through the year 2012.



Trademarks are of material importance to the Company
and are registered and maintained for all brands of the
Company's chewing gum on a worldwide basis.

(v) Seasonality. On a consolidated basis, sales
normally are relatively consistent throughout the year,
although the combined second and third quarters generally
contribute more than half of the Company's sales.

(vi) Working capital items. Inventory requirements of
the Company are not materially affected by seasonal or other
factors. In general, the Company does not offer its
customers extended payment terms. The Company believes
these conditions are not materially different from those of
its competitors.

(vii) Customers. The Company's products are
distributed through over 5,000 customers throughout the
United States alone. No single domestic or foreign customer
accounts for as much as 10% of consolidated sales or
revenues.

(viii) Orders. It is the general custom of the
wholesale trade to purchase chewing gum requirements at
intervals of approximately ten days to two weeks to assure
fresh stocks and good turnover. Therefore, an order backlog
is of no significance to the chewing gum business.

(ix) Government business. The Company has no material
portion of its business which may be subject to
renegotiation of profits or termination of contracts at the
election of the Government.

(x) Competitive conditions. The chewing gum market is
an intensely competitive one in the United States and in
most international markets. Though detailed figures are not
available, there are approximately 14 chewing gum
manufacturers in the United States. Outside sources
estimate that Wrigley brands account for approximately 49%
of the total chewing gum product unit sales in the United
States. The Company's principal competitors in the United
States are the Warner-Lambert Company and RJR Nabisco.

Wrigley brands are sold in 121 countries and
territories, although in some cases these markets are
relatively small. In most international markets, there are
two or three major competitors and generally a half dozen or
more other companies competing for a share of the gum market
in each instance.

In all markets in which the Company distributes its
products, principal methods of competition are a combination
of competitive profit margins to the trade, superior
quality, brand recognition, product benefit and a fair
consumer price.



(xi) Research and development. The Company has for
many years maintained an active in-house program, and has
also contracted outside services for developing and
improving Wrigley products, machinery and operations. In
relation to the Company's consolidated assets, revenues and
aggregate operating expenses, amounts expended in these
areas during the last three fiscal years have not been
material.

(xii) Compliance with environmental laws. Compliance
with Federal, state and local laws regulating the discharge
of materials into the environment, or otherwise relating to
the protection of the environment, has no material effect on
capital expenditures, earnings or the competitive position
of the Company.

(xiii) Employees. During 1993, the Company employed
approximately 6,700 persons worldwide.

(d) Financial Information About Foreign and Domestic
Operations and Export Sales.

Information concerning the Company's operations in
different geographic areas for the years ended December 31,
1993, 1992 and 1991 is hereby incorporated by reference from
the 1993 Annual Report to Stockholders, on page 16, under
the caption "Operations by Geographic Areas," and on page 21
under the caption "Results of Operations."

(a) In China, the Company has a 50 year lease with the
Guangzhou Economic Technological Development Zone for the land
upon which the factory is located.

(b) In the Philippines, the Laurel-Langley Agreement
expired on May 27, 1975 and, under the terms of the Philippine
Constitution, foreign firms were required to divest themselves of
their land sites (but not the structures or improvements
thereon). Consequently, in December, 1975, Wrigley Philippines,
Inc. donated its land site, but not the buildings thereon, by
deed to the Philippine Rural Reconstruction Movement, a
non-stock, non-profit organization with no government
affiliation, on a lease-back arrangement for a 25-year term with
an option to renew for an additional 25 years.

(c) This building is the Company's principal
non-manufacturing property and houses the offices of the
Company's corporate headquarters. In 1993, the Company's offices
occupied approximately 118,000 of the 451,600 square feet of
rentable space in the building.

In the case of each factory listed above, there are also
included some offices and warehouse facilities. Also, the
