Chio is a renowned snack brand with a heritage dating back to 1962 in Germany. Originally established by the von Opel family (the name Chio is an acronym derived from Carlo, Heinz, and Irmgard von Opel), the brand became the first potato chip manufacturer in Germany. Over the decades, it expanded its portfolio to include corn-based snacks like the 'Taccos' featured in the image, which are ring-shaped corn snacks with a savory grilled flavor profile.

Today, Chio is a core brand of Intersnack Group, a major European snack food company. While the brand originated in Germany, its manufacturing is distributed across various European facilities to serve local markets in Central and Eastern Europe. Ownership remains within the Intersnack Group, a privately held conglomerate headquartered in Düsseldorf, which manages a massive portfolio of international and regional snack brands.
