Yes, you read that correctly. Powermints is celebrating its 45th anniversary, and we can hardly believe it ourselves. It all began with the founding of Kräutica Pharma GmbH & Co. KG by Peter Oeij Hong-Bie in 1976. Then, as now, the use of natural ingredients is our highest priority.
Over the years, various products were launched, such as a liquid breath freshener in 1979 or our first mint lozenge under the brand name “Frisk” in 1986. We continuously evolved and, in 1996, set out to conquer the world with the Frésh brand.
In 2003, Compass came to life – the new fresh lozenge in a stylish metal tin. As our product family grew, naturally requiring more space, production halls were renovated and expanded in 2004. Over the years, our production has also been continuously modernized and adapted to contemporary standards. Sustainability and efficiency were very important to us from an early stage.
New Visionaries – More Power
2011 was the founding year of Powermints GmbH, which continues to thrive today, and since then, we have been moving full speed ahead into a future full of new possibilities. Especially since the beginning of the Corona pandemic, we have been on a digital course and have completely adapted our company to the new situation. A situation that challenges us all but also brings with it great potential.
We do not want to be held back and aim to stay in touch with our customers – even if we cannot currently attend trade fairs. Thus, all our meetings have been held online for some time now, and we are even going a step further.
On February 24, our first online live event will take place. It is, so to speak, a digital trade fair where we will provide existing, but naturally also potential new customers, with a deep insight into our company.

We are very much looking forward to embarking on a completely new future with you and hope to welcome you to our online event on February 24.
Your Powermints Team
