Mazola Corn Oil

Mazola is a historic brand of cooking oil that was originally developed in the United States in 1911 by Corn Products Refining Co. The brand is well-known globally for its pure corn oil, which has been marketed extensively for its health benefits, particularly its cholesterol-lowering properties. Over the decades, Mazola has evolved from a single product brand into a diverse line of oils and cooking sprays.

In the European market, particularly in Germany, the brand's trajectory diverged from the American entity. While Mazola is owned by ACH Food Companies, Inc. (a subsidiary of Associated British Foods) in North America, the European rights were acquired by Peter Kölln GmbH & Co. KGaA, a traditional German family-owned business established in 1795. The manufacturing of Mazola oil for the European market involves sourcing corn from various international agricultural regions, with processing and bottling occurring in European facilities to meet local quality standards.
