Overview

Jolly Cola is an original Danish cola brand first introduced in 1959 by Dansk Coladrik A/S as a homegrown alternative to imported American colas. (en.wikipedia.org)

Manufacturing and variants

Today Jolly Cola (including the sugar-free 'Sukkerfri' variant) is produced primarily in Denmark by A/S Bryggeriet Vestfyen in Assens; the product is widely available in Danish retail in sugar-free 33 cl formats and similar SKUs. (bryggeriet-vestfyen.dk)

Historically and regionally, Jolly has also been produced under licence or local ownership in other markets — notably the Faroe Islands where Føroya Bjór has produced Jolly variants for decades — so production is not strictly limited to a single site. (cola.kilokilokilo.dk)

Ownership and corporate structure

The brand’s original company is Dansk Coladrik A/S (Denmark). The primary producer and long-time steward of the brand is Bryggeriet Vestfyen; Vestfyen was acquired by Finland’s Olvi Group and, per Vestfyen’s own timeline, completed consolidation of remaining Jolly ownership in 2024, placing Jolly under the Olvi corporate umbrella via Vestfyen.
