Zingo is an iconic Swedish carbonated soft drink, best known for its vibrant orange flavor and long-standing presence in the Scandinavian market. The brand's history dates back to the 1950s when it was first introduced under the name 'Valencia' and later 'Ingo-dricka'—named after the legendary Swedish heavyweight boxer Ingemar "Ingo" Johansson. It was officially rebranded as Zingo in 1962 and quickly became a cultural staple, often associated with nostalgia and the Swedish summer.

Over the decades, the brand transitioned through several corporate hands. Originally a product of AB Apotekarnes Förenade Vattenfabriker, it eventually became part of the Swedish beverage giant Pripps. In 2000, Pripps merged with the Danish brewing group Carlsberg, which remains the brand's ultimate owner. Today, Zingo continues to be produced in Sweden by Carlsberg Sverige, maintaining its legacy as a classic Swedish refreshment while benefiting from the global distribution network of its Danish parent company.
