HI-CHEW® is Japan’s #1 chewy candy and a global fan favorite known for its bursting fruit flavor, smooth texture, and long-lasting chew. First created in 1975 by Morinaga & Company, HI-CHEW was designed to mimic the texture of chewing gum—but it’s completely edible, making it a one-of-a-kind candy experience.

Loved for its true-to-life fruit taste, HI-CHEW has become a hit in the U.S. with a wide range of flavors like Mango, Strawberry, Green Apple, Grape, and tropical fruit blends. The brand is also known for innovative flavor pairings and limited-edition packs that keep customers coming back for more.

HI-CHEW is perfect for convenience stores, Asian markets, specialty candy shops, and travel retail, offering a bold, colorful alternative to traditional chewy candies.
