Haribo Fruit Gums

The product shown is a variety of Haribo fruit gums, identified by the distinctive GS1 prefix '400' on the barcode, which indicates the German registry. Haribo, an acronym for Hans Riegel Bonn, was founded in Bonn, Germany, in 1920. It has since grown into a global leader in the confectionery industry, famous for inventing the gummy bear.

Manufacturing takes place across several facilities in Europe and the United States to meet global demand. While the brand is deeply rooted in German heritage, it operates on a multinational scale with the Riegel family remaining as the ultimate owners. This specific packaging includes Italian labeling, indicating it is distributed within the European market. The product is primarily manufactured in Germany, but also produced in other locations like Turkey, the UK, and France depending on the specific product line.
