Mövenpick Black Cherry Fruit Spread

Mövenpick Gourmet Fruit Spreads are premium breakfast products known for their high fruit content and intense flavor. While the Mövenpick brand has deep Swiss roots, its range of fine foods—including these jams and spreads—is produced under a long-standing licensing agreement by the German company Schwartauer Werke. The specific product shown, a Black Cherry spread refined with sloe juice, is manufactured in Bad Schwartau, Germany.

The history of Mövenpick dates back to 1948, when Ueli Prager opened the first restaurant in Zurich, Switzerland. Over the decades, the brand expanded into various sectors, including hospitality, ice cream, and fine foods. The ownership of the brand is now split: the hotel business is owned by the French group Accor, and the ice cream division is a joint venture involving Nestlé. However, the 'Fine Food' licensing rights for jams and spreads are managed by the Mövenpick Group (Mövenpick Holding), which continues to oversee the brand's quality standards while partnering with specialists like Schwartauer Werke for production and distribution in European markets.
