History
1969
The legendary Summer of Love spawned plenty of refreshing ideas, including the Apollo 11 landing on the moon. That same year Ferrero launched the original Tic Tac®, which has stayed fresh for more than 50 years. Today we say that it was one small Mint for a man, but one giant leap into refreshment for everybody.
1970
In this world one has to make a name for them self. A catchy name works best - thus Ferrero didn't hesitate to replace the "Refreshing Mints" name with Tic Tac® mints.
1980
In the eighties, sales sky-rocketed in emerging markets, expanding Tic Tac® to a total of five continents, and the introduction of new flavors were the marks of good times for the most popular mints around the globe.
1990
The nineties were the times of steady growth. Tic Tac® had become one of the most popular confectionery brands in the world. It played out like a film, from the beginnings as a small mint to the rise of a worldwide renowned refreshment giant. Nothing could slow Tic Tac® down! As the brand matured, the flavor range evolved to the surprise and delight of its loyal fan base. Mint, Lime & Orange, Special Editions - Tic Tac® had it all!
2000
Tic Tac® provides refreshing moments no matter the flavor or occasion. We still remember the warm round of applause given to Cherry Passion, Extra Strong Mint… Since then, we aim to please our fan base with a variety new flavors, and - to our delight - they receive the warmest of welcomes.
Now
Tic Tac® has made it to the silver screen and small screen throughout the years, gracing fan-favorite TV shows and movies of all kinds.
