Kinder Schokolade (Kinder Chocolate)

Brand origin and product

Kinder Schokolade (commonly sold under the Kinder brand) was created by the Ferrero company as part of the Kinder line, first developed in Alba, Italy in the late 1960s. The Kinder brand was introduced by Michele Ferrero as a product designed for children with a higher milk content and a creamy filling. (kinder.com)

Manufacturing and distribution

Kinder Schokolade is manufactured in multiple countries to serve regional markets; published product information and industry sources list production in Italy, Germany and Belgium among the production locations used for the Kinder Schokolade product. Because Ferrero runs multiple factories and local production sites across Europe and beyond, Kinder Schokolade is produced in several countries rather than a single country of manufacture.

Ownership and corporate structure

The Kinder brand was created within Ferrero and remains owned by the Ferrero Group (Ferrero International S.p.A.), an Italian, family-controlled multinational confectionery company headquartered in Alba, Piedmont, Italy. Ferrero operates numerous national subsidiaries and commercial entities that handle local manufacturing, distribution and regulatory compliance (for example Ferrero Deutschland GmbH, Ferrero Belgium entities and other regional subsidiaries).
