Ritz Crackers Original

Ritz Crackers is an iconic brand of snack crackers that was first introduced by the National Biscuit Company (Nabisco) in the United States in 1934. Launched during the Great Depression, it was designed as a high-quality yet affordable snack for families. The brand quickly became a household name due to its distinct buttery flavor and buttery, flaky texture.

Today, Ritz is owned by Mondelēz International, which was spun off from Kraft Foods in 2012. Mondelēz is a global snacking powerhouse headquartered in Chicago, Illinois. While the brand has American roots, Ritz crackers are manufactured in various locations around the world to serve different markets. Products sold in Europe, as seen in this packaging with multiple Nordic languages, are often produced in regional European factories to ensure freshness and efficiency in the supply chain.

Mondelēz International continues to innovate with the Ritz brand, expanding into various flavors, shapes, and textures while maintaining the original recipe's popularity. The brand remains one of the topselling cracker brands globally, representing a significant portion of Mondelēz's savory snack portfolio.
