Universal AU are the leading candy importers in Australia with a growing range of lollies, premium chocolates, beverages, sugar products and product licensing.
In 1983 our founder, Jurgen Fengels (a young migrant from Germany), had a vision: to bring the world’s favourite confectionery brands to everyday Australians.
Since then, his humble family business has grown significantly to become the #1 novelty candy importer in Australia, and generations of Australians have grown up enjoying the best-selling candies and lollies that Universal AU acquires from overseas and local manufacturers.
Thanks to an unrivalled distribution network, Universal AU controls over 80% of the domestic novelty candy import market and has a growing footprint across Asia.
Our distribution partners supply confectionery from 148 wholesalers to over 40,000 retailers.
Our portfolio has also expanded beyond novelty confectionery. We have a Licensing division, and a Gourmet & Beverage division who partner with leading licensors, premium chocolates and novelty beverage brands from around the globe.
As the Australian novelty candy market evolves, we continuously work tirelessly to embrace it. Whatever opportunities the future holds, the values that shaped our success and our spirit of family will never change.
