Calvé Pindakaas met Stukjes Pinda

Calvé Pindakaas is an iconic Dutch staple with a history dating back to the late 19th century. The brand Calvé was formed through the merger of the Nederlandsche Oliefabriek (NOF) and the French oil producer Calvé in 1898. While the company initially focused on oils, it launched its legendary peanut butter in 1948, which quickly became the most popular brand in the Netherlands.

Today, Calvé is owned by the British multinational Unilever. The peanut butter continues to be primarily manufactured in the Netherlands, specifically at a dedicated production facility in Hellendoorn. This production site ensures that the traditional recipe and quality standards of this cultural favorite are maintained for various European markets.

Unilever is one of the world's largest consumer goods companies, managing a diverse portfolio of brands across food, home care, and personal care sectors. Despite its global presence, Calvé remains deeply rooted in Dutch identity, celebrated for its smooth texture or crunchy variants like this one containing chopped peanut pieces.
