Katjes Sour Cola Life

Katjes Sour Cola Life is a vegan fruit gum product from the renowned German confectionery brand Katjes. Originally founded in 1950 by Hans Fassin in Emmerich am Rhein, Germany, the brand name stems from the Dutch word for 'little cat.' The company became a pioneer in the industry by transitioning its entire range to be free of animal gelatin, obtaining official vegan certification.

The product is primarily manufactured in Katjes' production facilities within Germany, notably in Emmerich and Potsdam. The brand remains under the ownership of Katjes Fassin GmbH & Co. KG, a family-owned company that has expanded into a significant player in the European candy market through both organic growth and the acquisition of other well-known candy brands.
