Haribo Candy
Haribo is a renowned confectionery company, particularly famous for its gummy candies. Founded by Hans Riegel in 1920 in Bonn, Germany, Haribo is known for inventing the gummy bear in 1922, which was initially called the "Dancing Bear" (Tanzbären in German).
The company's Goldbears became its signature product, with various flavors including raspberry, lemon, strawberry, pineapple, and orange. The Goldbear mascot, which wears a red bow tie, debuted in 1989 and has since become a brand symbol.
