History

The company was established by Franz Zentis on 20 June 1893 in Aachen as a trading company.[2] Real breakthrough came in 1900, with the production of FAMOS a jam made from dried apricots and sugar. There are three Zentis facilities in the United States.

Pope Benedict XVI is among the company's patrons; every December near Christmas, a German banker from Bavaria, a Munich native named Thaddaeus Joseph Kuehnel, hand-delivers sweets from the company to the Vatican, along with Bavarian sausages from the Pope's favorite restaurant, Franziskaner, and special mustard.
