We love berries because they help give Ribena its unique taste
As a long established and well-loved British brand, Ribena has been enjoyed by families for over 70 years now. From the beginning, we have been passionate about the berries in Ribena products. Today, all of the blackcurrants that go into our squash are grown in the beautiful British countryside by trusted growers and bottled at the Ribena factory in Coleford, in the heart of the Forest of Dean.
By working with The Wildlife Trusts - one of the largest conservation charities in the UK - we help to promote wildlife friendly farming across the Ribena blackcurrant farms. And because we love blackcurrants so much we're also an associate of the Blackcurrant Foundation!
