JB is a traditional Chilean brand specialized in condiments and sauces, particularly famous for its 'Ají' (chili) products. The brand's history began in 1936 with Juan Bas Éroles, who started producing vinegars and pickles in Chile. His son, Juan Bas Mayo, further expanded the business, creating the iconic JB and Don Juan brands.
In the late 1980s, the JB brand was sold to Hellmann's, which later became part of the Unilever portfolio. Today, JB remains a staple in Chilean households, representing authentic local flavors. The manufacturing for these products continues to be centered in Chile, serving the domestic market and Chilean expatriate communities abroad.
As of 2026, the brand is owned by Unilever, a global consumer goods giant. Despite its international ownership, the product maintains its heritage through local production and recipes that emphasize the traditional Chilean culinary experience.
