About Topline
Topline is Arcor's chewing gum brand and one of the few parts of its Argentine confectionery business that grew in 2024, a year when chewy sweets, milk caramels and nougat all fell back sharply. The company kept developing the Topline Turbo line and introduced a cheaper pack size to hold volume as Argentine purchasing power dropped.

About the owner: Arcor
Arcor is a privately held company headquartered in Argentina, founded in 1951. Brandtree records 15 brands under its control.
Arcor is an Argentine food group founded in 1951 at Arroyito in Córdoba province by a group of young entrepreneurs led by Fulvio Salvador Pagani, and still run by the founding families. It is organised into three businesses — mass-market food, agribusiness and packaging — across 49 industrial plants, and describes itself as the largest producer of hard sweets in the world and the leading exporter of confectionery from Argentina, Chile and Peru. Its biscuits are made not by Arcor directly but by Bagley Latinoamérica, a company it holds 51% of alongside Danone.
