Koestlin’s products were also awarded in 2002. The wafer Java received the gold medal for quality and Rum squares received Champion of quality. It is important to note that Koestlin is the only manufacturer in the confectionary industry which has for two consecutive years been the proud owner of the Champion of quality acknowledgment.
The Paris group also deserves a special mention as it is a product which is manufactured according to an original and unique Koestlin recipe dating back more than three hundred years. An absolute leader among our products is Piknik, biscuits with a forty year tradition, which in its new packaging is winning over even more customers and breaking record sales.
