Über Ferrara
Ferrara® has stretched the sugary boundaries of imagination for over 115 years to create confections that bring people joy. Our belief that candy brings people closer has made us the undisputed leader in sugar confections in the US. Because of our singular focus on sugar, our candy is available all over the world and we’re a top player in the Brazil candy scene. With over 30 brands, 27 operational facilities, and a team of over 8,300, it’s no wonder 26 packs of Ferrara® candy are sold every second.
We’ve been a driving force in the candy industry for over a century.
Our investments and dedication have made us a leader in the evolving sugar industry, while we stay true to the values and communities that got us here. We recently relocated our main offices back to Chicago and opened a $100 million manufacturing facility nearby, supporting our hometown’s economic growth.
Our Purpose
At Ferrara, our goal is to create moments of connection. We will lead the future of sweet snacking by continuing to reimagine what candy can be.

Die Ferrara® - Geschichte
Vor mehr als einem Jahrhundert begann eine Einwandererfamilie mit dem Verkauf von Süßigkeiten in einer kleinen Bäckerei in Chicagos Little Italy. Über Generationen hinweg haben wir mit unserer Leidenschaft für Innovation einen bescheidenen Laden in die Nummer eins der Süßwarenhersteller in den USA verwandelt – zur Freude von Gourmets auf der ganzen Welt.
Our Innovation
Putting our customers first and investing in cutting-edge R&D has led to award-winning product developments year after year.
Where We're Going

With unmatched expertise in the sugar industry, we continue to expand our manufacturing processes and solidify our position as a global leader.
