PROFILE |
 |
That sweet smell of success might be coming from Germany's #1 biscuit manufacturer, Bahlsen. The biscuit and sweets maker also ranks high in sweet and salted snack sales in Europe. Bahlsen operates three companies: sweets, savoury snacks, and a third with other brands plus financial and real estate firms. One of Bahlsen's core products is Leibniz Cakes, introduced in 1891. The company often adds new items, including the chocolate confectionary bar PiCK UP!, released in 1999. Bahlsen satisfies the world's sweet tooth through exports to about 70 countries. Founder Hermann Bahlsen's grandsons, Werner and Lorenz Bahlsen, each own 36% and their brother-in-law Gisbert von Nordeck owns 28%.
