Schwartau Corny cereal bar

Schwartau is a prominent German brand specializing in jams and cereal bars, most notably the Corny brand. This specific product is manufactured in Bad Schwartau, Germany, which remains the primary production hub for the company's snacks and fruit spreads. Founded in 1899, the Schwartauer Werke has grown from a local chemical factory into a leading European food manufacturer.

Today, the brand is part of the Hero Group, a Swiss-based international food company. While the manufacturing remains deeply rooted in its original German location, the ultimate ownership reflects the global scale of the Hero Group, which maintains headquarters in Lenzburg, Switzerland. The integration into the Hero Group has allowed Schwartau brands to expand their footprint across Europe and beyond.
