Fazer is one of Finland's most iconic companies, founded in 1891 by Karl Fazer as a French-Russian confectionery in Helsinki. Over the decades, it has grown from a single café into an international food experience company. The brand is deeply rooted in Finnish culture, famously known for its signature 'Fazer Blue' milk chocolate which has been produced using the same secret recipe since 1922.

Today, Fazer remains a family-owned enterprise, with the Fazer family retaining ultimate control and ownership. While the brand has expanded its manufacturing footprint to include Sweden, the Baltics, and beyond to serve the Northern European market, the majority of its production remains centered in Finland, particularly at its flagship factory in Vantaa. The company has also diversified into bakery products, plant-based foods, and lifestyle services, maintaining a strong commitment to sustainable cocoa sourcing and Nordic heritage.
