Chio Popcorn Sweet

Chio is a renowned snack brand with a deep-rooted history in Germany, where it was established in 1962 by the von Opel family at Petersau estate. The brand name itself is an acronym derived from the family names (Carlo, Heinz, and Irmgard von Opel). Originally famous for introducing the first potato chips to the German market, the brand has expanded significantly into other snack categories, including various popcorn varieties like the sweet version shown.

Today, Chio is a core brand of Intersnack Group, one of the leading manufacturers of savory snacks in Europe. While its heritage is firmly German, the production is now distributed across various Intersnack facilities throughout Europe to meet regional demand. The ultimate owner, Intersnack Group GmbH & Co. KG, remains headquartered in Düsseldorf, Germany, maintaining the brand's European identity while operating on a global scale.
