Roshen Aerated Milk Chocolate

Roshen Aerated Milk Chocolate is a prominent product from one of the largest confectionery manufacturers in Eastern Europe. The brand was founded in 1996 by Petro Poroshenko, taking its name from the middle syllables of his surname. The brand's history is deeply rooted in Ukraine, specifically linked to the historical Kyiv Confectionery Factory, which provides the foundation for its extensive range of chocolate and sweets.

Today, Roshen is an international player with production facilities primarily located in Ukraine (Kyiv, Vinnytsia, Kremenchuk, and Yahotyn), though it has historically operated facilities in other countries such as Lithuania and Hungary. The brand is owned by the Roshen Confectionery Corporation, which remains one of the most successful private enterprises in Ukraine, known for its high-quality standards and diverse product portfolio that reaches markets across Europe, Asia, and North America.

The ultimate ownership of the brand rests with Petro Poroshenko through his investment funds. Despite his political career, the corporation remains a distinct commercial entity headquartered in Kyiv. It continues to be a staple of Ukrainian industry and a major exporter of confectionery goods worldwide.
