Hula Hoops are a quintessential British snack, first introduced in 1973 by KP Snacks in Rotherham, South Yorkshire. Known for their iconic ring shape, they have remained a staple of the UK snack market for over five decades. The product is primarily manufactured in the United Kingdom, with major production facilities located in Ashby-de-la-Zouch and Teesside.
While the brand's heritage and production are rooted in Britain, the ownership has changed over the years. Originally part of United Biscuits, KP Snacks—and consequently the Hula Hoops brand—was acquired by the German snack food giant Intersnack Group in late 2012. Despite this international ownership, the brand continues to operate as a major British entity with its headquarters based in Slough, England, maintaining its status as one of the UK's most recognizable crisp brands.
