Arla Kærgården Salted Spreadable Butter

Arla Kærgården is a flagship brand of the international dairy cooperative Arla Foods. Launched in Denmark in 1990, it revolutionized the dairy aisle by combining butter with rapeseed oil to create a spreadable product directly from the refrigerator.

The brand has deep roots in Danish agricultural history, stemming from the merger between the Danish MD Foods and the Swedish Arla. Today, Kærgården is produced in large quantities for the European market, with major production facilities located in Holstebro, Denmark, and Upahl, Germany. As a cooperative, the brand is owned by thousands of dairy farmers across Northern and Western Europe, ensuring vertical integration from farm to table.
