Venco Licorice

Venco is an iconic Dutch confectionery brand renowned for its expertise in licorice. The brand's history dates back to 1878 when Gerrit van Voornveld founded a factory in Amsterdam specializing in medicinal and cough sweets. Over the decades, Venco became a household name in the Netherlands, evolving its recipes to create various textures and flavors ranging from sweet to salty.

Today, Venco is a market leader in the Dutch licorice segment. While it was once an independent Amsterdam-based company, it is now part of the Cloetta Group, a leading Nordic confectionery company. Production primarily takes place in advanced manufacturing facilities in the Netherlands, ensuring the traditional Dutch taste and quality are maintained for both local consumption and international export.
