The Natural Confectionery Co. Dinosaurs

The Natural Confectionery Co. (TNCC) is a popular brand of gummy sweets known for its commitment to using no artificial colours or flavours. The brand's dinosaur-shaped gummies are a staple in the Australian and New Zealand confectionery markets, appealing to consumers looking for treats with fewer synthetic additives.

Originally founded in Australia in 1941 as Sunrise Confectioners, the brand evolved significantly before becoming known as The Natural Confectionery Co. in the early 1990s. Its marketing focus on 'natural' ingredients helped it capture a significant share of the gummy market in the Oceania region.

Today, the brand is owned by Mondelēz International, a global snack food powerhouse. While the brand remains deeply rooted in its Australian heritage with major manufacturing facilities in Melbourne (Scoresby), production can occur in multiple locations to meet global demand. Mondelēz manages the brand through its regional subsidiaries, ensuring that these jelly snacks continue to be a dominant presence on supermarket shelves across New Zealand and Australia.
