Polo is a world-renowned brand of mints, famously characterized by their ring shape and marketed with the iconic slogan "The Mint with the Hole." Originally launched in 1948 by the British confectionery company Rowntree's in York, England, it was intended to be a competitor to North American products like Life Savers.

Today, the brand is owned and managed by Nestlé, which acquired Rowntree's in 1988. The manufacturing for the UK and European markets is primarily centered at the Nestlé factory in York, which has been the home of Polo production for decades. The brand has expanded from its original peppermint flavor to include sugar-free variants, extra strong versions, and fruit flavors, maintaining its position as a staple in the candy aisles across international markets.
