KoRo Date and Hazelnut Spread

KoRo Date and Hazelnut Spread is a popular plant-based alternative to traditional chocolate spreads, focusing on clean ingredients and transparent sourcing. The brand was established in Berlin, Germany, by Constantinos Calios and Robert Schyska in 2014 with the aim of bypasssing traditional retail structures and providing high-quality bulk foods directly to consumers.

The product is primarily manufactured in Germany, aligning with the company's commitment to European production standards and organic certification, as evidenced by the EU organic logo and B Corp certification visible on the label. KoRo has grown significantly into a major European food-tech startup, maintaining its headquarters in Berlin while expanding its reach across various international markets.

While the company has received significant investment from various venture capital firms to fuel its international expansion, the brand remains under the ultimate ownership and management of KoRo Handels GmbH. The brand is recognized for its sustainability efforts and its 'transparent' supply chain model which connects producers more directly with end users.
