Spar beverage or food

Spar is a Dutch multinational retail franchise that provides branding and supply chain services for food retail stores. Founded in 1932 by Adriaan van Well in the Netherlands, the name stands for Door Eendrachtig Samenwerken Profiteren Allen Regelmatig (Through United Co-operation All Profit Regularly), with its iconic fir tree logo representing the word 'spar' in Dutch.

Unlike many global retailers, Spar operates as a voluntary association of wholesalers and retailers. Products under the Spar brand name are manufactured in multiple countries depending on where the specific regional license holder operates. Local manufacturers are typically contracted to produce goods specifically for that market’s Spar shelves, ensuring local supply chains are utilized within the global framework.
