Haribo

Haribo is an acronym for Hans Riegel (founder's name) and Bonn(city in Germany where it was founded). It was founded in 1920. Haribo is known for making the first gummy candy in 1922, and also the first gummy bear. Haribo started out in a small backyard laundry-kitchen, but now is the worlds largest manufacturing business for gummy and jelly candies; with five factories in Germany and thirteen others throughout Europe. All kids in Germany grow up eating Haribo and is as well-know/popular to kids in Germany as Hershey is to kids in the USA.
