Marabou is a Swedish chocolate brand, with factories in Upplands Väsby outside of Stockholm. The company was founded in 1916 by the Norwegian chocolate manufacturer Johan Throne Holst (1868-1946), who had had great success with the Freia brand in Norway.

Freia and Marabou later merged, and were in 1993 purchased by Kraft Foods, for NOK 3 billion.
