Healthy nutrition is very important to us. Especially in hectic times, it is important for us to reach for a healthy snack. Peppermint has therefore acquired a stake in ETHCL Food Labs GmbH through a merger. With the brand TZAMPAS, the Berlin start-up offers energy bars based on the roasted barley flour of the same name. The naturalness of the ingredients has top priority.
