Van Wijngaarden's Zaanse halfvolle mayo

Van Wijngaarden's Zaanse Mayo is a quintessential Dutch condiment with a history dating back to 1929. Originating in the Zaan region of the Netherlands, the brand was established by the Van Wijngaarden family, who initially focused on oil and later expanded into the production of their famous mayonnaise. The 'Zaanse' name is synonymous with a traditional recipe that has become a staple in Dutch households.

Today, the brand remains under the stewardship of the original founding company, Van Wijngaarden B.V., which continues to operate as an independent family-owned business. The manufacturing takes place primarily in Zaandam, preserving the local heritage and ensuring quality control. The 'halfvolle' (semi-skimmed) version seen here is a lower-fat alternative to their classic recipe, maintained within the same brand family.
