Haribo Bananas

Haribo Bananas are a popular soft gummy candy distinguished by their foam-like texture and sweet banana flavor. Originally founded in 1920 by Hans Riegel in Bonn, Germany, Haribo has grown into a global powerhouse in the confectionery industry. The name itself is an acronym for HAns RIegel BOnn.

While the brand is rooted in Germany, manufacturing occurs across various facilities throughout Europe to meet regional demands. Haribo remains a private, family-owned company, maintained by the Riegel family through the Hans Riegel Holding GmbH. Its products are distributed globally, often through local subsidiaries like Haribo Nederland, ensuring that their classic treats are available in nearly every market.
