Chupa Chups
History
In the early 1950s, Enric Bernat founded the company Productos Bernat, which specialized in the production of confectionery. Bernat began working for an apple jam factory called "Granja Asturias" in 1954. By 1958, he controlled 100% of the capital of Granja Asturias and renamed the company Chupa Chups in 1961. He built the production machines and sold a striped bonbon on a wooden stick, but later it was changed to a plastic one. To ensure that competition in Spain was reduced, he purchased the Spanish patents for similar products in 1959.
