The brand was founded in 1958 by Enric Bernat, and is currently owned by the Italian-DutchcompanyPerfetti Van Melle. The name of the brand comes from the Spanish verb chupar, meaning "to suck". Similar confections are known as lollipops or suckers in English.[1]
History
In the early 1950s, Enric Bernat founded the company Productos Bernat, which specialized in the production of confectionery.[2] Bernat began working for an apple jam factory called "Granja Asturias" in 1954.[2] By 1958, he controlled 100% of the capital of Granja Asturias[2] and renamed the company Chupa Chups in 1961.[3] He built the production machines and sold a striped bonbon on a wooden stick, but later it was changed to a plastic one.
