Rico Food Industries Sdn. Bhd. is a small-medium enterprise that is based in Kedah, Malaysia. The company was officially established on 23rd of May 1995 and has been serving the market for more than two decades. Started off as a trader that operates in a semi-detached warehouse with a workforce of not more than 10 members of staff, Rico is now a manufacturing firm driven by approximately 200 employees who ceaselessly strive to serve the company to comply with the market needs.

To date, Rico manufactures products of 6 categories namely (1) hard candy, (2) toy candy, (3) snack and cereal, (4) jelly and pudding, (5) chocolate, and (6) wafer. Hard candy was the very first product category to be brought into the company’s production line as a candy machine was incorporated in 1998. And so, the manufacturing journey had begun. Time after time, Rico has always been envisioning endless possibilities in the food and beverages industry. Various product development plans had been undertaken over the years in order to penetrate into new market segments, given the market stability and demand at that period of time. After the hard candy line has become mature, it was soon followed by snack and cereal in 2003, jelly and pudding in 2007, chocolate in 2008, and wafer in 2015.
