history

Jung was founded in 1828 under the company name JUNG BONBONFABRIK GmbH & Co. KG. Originally baked goods were made , later sweets .

The first steps in the direction of promotional sweets are documented in a letter from 1910. In addition to cough lozenges, it also mentions giveaway sweets. This original form of the advertising candy was not yet wrapped and printed, but the "gift candy" can definitely be described as a give-away from the very beginning. According to the company, the advertising candy was invented at Jung.

In 1999 the company opened Germany's first candy museum and the Gummibärenland outlet store in Kleinglattbach . From there, television reported several times on the candy production, including Galileo and Die Sendung mit der Maus .

In 2002 the subsidiary emotion factory GmbH , based in Vaihingen an der Enz, was founded, which offered non-food products as advertising material across Europe , including advertising plants and articles in wood design. In 2016 the company was sold to Heri-Rigoni GmbH .

In 2006 the subsidiary foodvertising GmbH & Co. KG was established in Arnstadt . There is a digital printing center as well as packaging systems for u. a. Advent calendar and fruit gum bags. In 2018 foodvertising GmbH & Co. KG merged with JUNG since 1828 GmbH & Co. KG . The merger was taken as an opportunity to change the company name from JUNG BONBONFABRIK GmbH & Co. KG to JUNG since 1828 GmbH & Co. KG .
