Fox's Confectionery
Fox's Confectionery is a British confectionery company, originally founded by Walter Richard Fox in 1880. The company is well-known for its production of a variety of sweets and chocolates, including the popular Fox's Glacier Mints and Fox's Glacier Fruits.
History[edit | edit source]
Walter Richard Fox established Fox's Confectionery in Leicester, England in 1880. The company initially started as a small, family-run business, but quickly grew in popularity due to the high quality of its products. In the early 20th century, Fox's introduced its now iconic Glacier Mints, which became a staple in British confectionery.
In 1922, the company was acquired by Rowntree's, a major British confectionery company. Under Rowntree's, Fox's continued to expand its product range and increase its market share. In 1988, Rowntree's was taken over by Nestlé, and Fox's became a part of the Nestlé group.
In 2001, Fox's was sold to Northern Foods. The company continued to produce its popular range of sweets and chocolates under the Fox's brand. In 2011, Fox's was acquired by the Finnish company Raisio Group, who continue to produce Fox's products to this day.
Products[edit | edit source]
Fox's Confectionery is best known for its Fox's Glacier Mints and Fox's Glacier Fruits. These clear, hard candies are made using natural mint and fruit flavours, and are a popular choice among consumers for their refreshing taste.
In addition to its Glacier range, Fox's also produces a variety of other confectionery products, including Fox's Biscuits, Fox's Crinkles, and Fox's Party Rings. These products are widely available in supermarkets and convenience stores across the UK and internationally.
