In 1919, Riichi Ezaki created a caramel candy product containing glycogen extracted from oysters. The caramel candy product was named "Cuchieco". The sales copy for this product was "300 Meters in a Single Piece," and a running man was painted on the package. On February 11, 1922, Riichi started selling Glico products at the Mitsukoshi Osaka branch.
Later, in 1922, Riichi established a company, Ezaki Glico Co., Ltd. Glico is the shortened word for glycogen. Its Osaka and Tokyo factories were destroyed during World War II, and they were reopened in 1951. Popular products like Pretz and Pocky were introduced in 1963 and 1966, respectively.
