Halls Menthol-Lyptus

Halls is a globally recognized brand of mentholated cough drops, widely utilized for providing relief from sore throats and nasal congestion. Originally developed in the United Kingdom during the 1930s by the Hall brothers, the brand gained prominence for its signature 'Mentho-Lyptus' formula, which combines menthol and eucalyptus. The product has since become a staple in medicine cabinets and convenience stores worldwide.

Manufacturing of Halls products is highly decentralized to serve various regional markets efficiently. Production facilities are located in countries including Thailand, Mexico, Brazil, Canada, and several others. This global manufacturing footprint allows the brand to maintain a dominant market share in the medicated confectionery category across different continents.

Ownership of the Halls brand has transitioned through several major corporate entities over the decades. Originally part of Halls Brothers, it was later acquired by Warner-Lambert, which subsequently merged with Pfizer. In 2003, Cadbury Schweppes purchased the Adams confectionery business from Pfizer, bringing Halls into its portfolio. Today, Halls is owned by Mondelēz International, which was formed following the spin-off of Kraft Foods' snack food operations. Mondelēz continues to manage the brand as a key component of its global candy and refreshment sector.
