Mars, Incorporated owns
Wikipedia names Mars Inc. as the producer of the Mars bar since 1932.

Built from the ownership rows on the brand and company pages, each cited where it is recorded. Made in is the country of production on this product's record; the GS1 prefix of a barcode names the issuing organisation, not where the product was made.

About this product

Mars 4 bars is the British and Irish multipack of the Mars bar: four 39.4 g bars of milk chocolate with soft nougat (32%) and caramel centre (27%) in one outer wrapper, sold under barcode 5000159484527.[1][3] Its panel declares 1883 kJ / 448 kcal per 100 g and 742 kJ / 177 kcal per bar, with four portions to the pack.[4] The back prints consumer contacts for Britain, through Mars Wrigley Confectionery UK, and for Ireland, marks the pack "Suitable for Vegetarians" and carries the Fairtrade Cocoa mark on a mass-balance basis.[1] The front shows a yellow "4 BARS" flash beside the black and red Mars wordmark.[5] The brand belongs to Mars Inc.[6]

Forrest Mars Sr. first made the bar in Slough in 1932, modelling it on his father's American Milky Way bar.[6] The barcode's company prefix 5000159 belongs to the group's French confectionery company: GS1's list of GDSN member companies carries GLN 5000159000000 against MARS CHOCOLAT FRANCE, the former name of Mars Wrigley Confectionery France.[7] Beyond Britain the pack turns up in British import shops, such as Brits R U.S. in Northampton, Massachusetts, which lists it by this barcode.[2]

Coverage & research gaps (12)

Coverage measures the evidence recorded here. It does not rate the product.

  • Identity: 3 / 3 · Name, brand and classification recorded
  • Context: 2 / 3 · Evidence groups assigned to a researched label, edition or analysis
  • Label photographs: 0 / 2 · Researched contexts with an assigned photograph
  • Nutrition panel photographed on an earlier four-pack: nutrient evidence: 16 / 16 · Recorded nutrient rows linked to a source; not the number of nutrients that ought to exist
  • identity · unknown: The Mars bar family also lists 5000159551823, a 4 x 39.4 g pack photographed in 2025; whether it replaced this barcode, and whether this one is still made, is not stated by Mars.
  • markets · unknown: Search results name an ALDI Ireland groceries page "Caramel, Nougat & Milk Chocolate Snack Bars Multipack 4x39.4g Mars" and a Central Co-op page "Mars Bars 4 x 39.4g (157.6g)" under URLs ending in this barcode; the ALDI page now redirects to the aldi.ie home page and Central Co-op answered 403, so neither is a Markets row.
  • markets · unknown: Searched amazon.com on 2026-09-25 through a web search for "Mars bar 4 pack 39.4g" and for the barcode: the 4 x 39.4 g listing B01BND12YU and the 4 x 39 g listing B0170B057Y both answer 404 on amazon.com, and B000HNEX80 describes 40 g bars; no amazon.com listing of this article was read.
  • relationships · unknown: GS1's GDSN trading-partner list settles who holds the prefix but not how long it is, so 5000159 is recorded as a seven-digit prefix without a published allocation length.
  • identity · not_researched: The photographs read carry no origin statement, so country_of_origin is left empty; Amazon.co.uk gives "Country as Labeled: Great Britain", which is the label market, not the place of manufacture.
  • evidence · stale: Evidence was observed over a year ago; check for newer labels. Historical evidence remains valid.
  • evidence · stale: Evidence was observed over a year ago; check for newer labels. Historical evidence remains valid.
