fritz-kola caffeinated soft drink

fritz-kola is a prominent independent beverage brand established in 2003 in Hamburg, Germany. The brand was famously founded by two friends, Lorenz Hampl and Mirco Wolf Wiegert, with the goal of creating a cola with high caffeine content and less sweetness than major global brands.

Starting from a small student budget, the brand has grown into a significant culture icon in Europe, known for its iconic black-and-white minimalist branding featuring the founders' faces. All fritz-kola products are primarily manufactured and bottled in Germany, emphasizing regional production and sustainability through the use of glass returnable bottles. The brand remains under the independent ownership of fritz-kulturgüter GmbH.
