Remia Fritesaus

Remia Fritesaus is an iconic Dutch condiment that was specifically invented by the Remia company in 1967 as a lower-fat alternative to traditional mayonnaise. Its unique, creamy, and tangy profile was designed perfectly to complement French fries, and it has since become a staple in Dutch snack culture. The brand remains deeply rooted in its heritage, maintaining high production standards within its native country.

Historically, Remia began as an oil-blending company founded by Arie de Rooij in his garage in 1925. Over decades, it evolved into a major food manufacturer. Today, Remia remains an independent family-owned business, which is a rarity in the global food industry dominated by large conglomerates. The company operates from its modern production facility in Den Dolder, Netherlands, from where it exports various sauces and dressings to over 100 countries worldwide.
