production of the popular hard-shelled chocolate candy Lentilky will move from the Czech Republic to Germany
The candies have been produced in by candy company Sfinx in Holešov
Sfinx has been a subsidiary of Swiss-based food giant Nestlé since 1992
production will move production to Hamburg
The move was first reported by Czech Radio – Radiožurnál
and later confirmed by Nestlé Česko spokesman Robert Kičina
The reason for the move is to align the recipe for Lentilky with the similar Nestlé-owned candy Smarties
which is sold in other countries except for the United States
the brand name Smarties is owned by Smarties Candy Company and applies to a sugar-based non-chocolate tablet candy.)
The new recipe for Lentilky will have less sugar and more milk and chocolate
The new packaging also will not use plastic
“The factory in Hamburg will take over the production of Lentilky from April 2021
The operators who are now involved in the production of Lentilky will be moved to other production lines and workshops at the Sfinx plant,” Nestlé’s Kičina said
The Sfinx factory also produces the candies Jojo
Harmonization of the recipe with our Smarties brand was decided based on results of consumer tests
Moving production will reduce the maintenance costs for the production technologies and better utilize factory capacities in Hamburg
which are sufficient for production and distribution of Smarties and Lentilky to all European Union members
The Hamburg plant also has the technology to put Lentilky into paper packaging
which will contribute to fulfilling Nestlé's commitments to reduce plastic waste
Packaging of the best-selling 28 gram paper cartons of Lentilky will continue to take place at the Sfinx factory
Lentilky were first made by the brothers Philipp and Rudolf Kneisl in Holešov in 1907
Their name comes from the Latin word lenticula
The brand name was later registered by Philipp Kneisl and the factory was then renamed to Sfinx
Every day the factory produces almost 6 million Lentils in seven colors
about 400 people worked in the Holešov plant
More than half of its production consists of jelly products
which are sold on the domestic market mainly under the Jojo brand
