Nestlé / Ferrero Crunch chocolate bar

Crunch is a iconic chocolate bar made of milk chocolate and crisped rice. It was originally introduced by the Nestlé company in 1938. For decades, it remained a flagship product of the Swiss multinational Nestlé.

In 2018, Ferrero, the Italian confectionery giant known for brands like Nutella and Ferrero Rocher, acquired Nestlé's United States confectionery business, which included the Crunch brand. As a result, the brand is currently under split ownership: Ferrara Candy Company (a subsidiary of Ferrero) manages the brand in the United States, while Nestlé continues to produce and market Crunch in most international markets. Consequently, manufacturing takes place in various factories worldwide, including facilities in the United States, Mexico, and several European and Asian countries depending on the point of sale.
