KoRo starts its own nut butter production in Germany

Berlin, 21st April 2022.

The year 2021 ended successfully for the Berlin food company KoRo. Around 500 new products were added to the online shop last year. In order to meet the growing demand from customers and to be able to bring its own creations into the shop even faster, KoRo will be producing some of its bestsellers - nut butters and date spreads - in its own production facility in southern Germany from March 2022.

The first to roll off the production line is one of KoRo's own creations: the date cashew and vanilla spread. The vegan spread is unique on the market because it consists of only three ingredients: dates, cashews and vanilla. No palm oil, no preservatives, but the sweetness of the date and the delicate vanilla flavour. The first 3,000 jars from the company's own production are now available in the online shop and only while stocks last. In the future, there will be more date spread creations as well as nut butters from the company's own production.

In KoRo's own production facility in southern Germany, creams and butters are now produced in both conventional and organic quality. The first in-house creation: date-cashew-vanilla cream (left).


"The establishment of our own production ensures not only quality, but also constant availability. Over the years, we have established contact with many suppliers who can now supply us with raw materials. We can flexibly adjust roasting degrees and flavours and also quickly meet customer requests." Piran Asci, CEO at KoRo

New creations and exciting combinations

Another big advantage of having a production facility is that KoRo’s unique creations can be produced and added to the shop quickly. KoRo is constantly dreaming up new creations, and the combination of date, cashew and vanilla was came out on top at the recent tasting in the Berlin office. The new date, cashew and vanilla spread is another unique KoRo creation and is only produced by KoRo. In addition, a wide variety of nut butters and other new combinations are set to leave the production line for the KoRo warehouse in Berlin Falkensee in the future.

From tasting to bottling - thanks to their own production, the product developers at KoRo can now be present at every step of the way.
