Mentos is a world-renowned brand of chewy mints and candies, first developed in the Netherlands during the early 1930s. The iconic brand was created by the brothers Michael and Pierre van Melle, who initially introduced the product as a peppermint-flavored caramel. Over the decades, Mentos expanded its flavor profile to include various fruit varieties, such as the orange flavor featured on this packaging.

Today, the brand is under the ultimate ownership of Perfetti Van Melle, a global confectionery giant formed by the merger of the Italian group Perfetti and the Dutch company Van Melle in 2001. Mentos products are manufactured in several high-tech facilities across the globe, with major production hubs in the Netherlands to serve the European market. The brand's presence is managed locally by various subsidiaries, such as Perfetti Van Melle Benelux B.V. in the Netherlands and Belgium, ensuring consistent quality and distribution worldwide.
