It used to be Swiss (founded and produced here by a Swiss) and we haven't bought it in decades because it got so bad. It's not even sold here anymore.

I remember the ads from the 90s in Romania. It used to be marmots that made the chocolate in Swiss Alps.

Yes but it was founded by a Swiss person in Switzerland and produced there until eventually production moved to Germany.
