Znojmia Pickled Gherkins

Znojmia is a historic brand specializing in pickled vegetables and preserves, deeply rooted in the Czech culinary tradition of the Znojmo region, which is famous for its cucumber cultivation. The product shown features pasteurized gherkins in a sweet and sour brine, a signature staple of Central European cuisine.

While the brand originated in the Czech Republic and remains a household name there, the manufacturing of certain products, as indicated on the packaging label (Vyrobeno v Německu), takes place in Germany. This is common for large consumer goods companies that centralize production across European facilities to optimize the supply chain while maintaining regional recipes.

Today, Znojmia is owned by Orkla, a leading Norwegian industrial conglomerate that acquired the brand through its purchase of the Czech food company Hamé. Orkla manages a vast portfolio of established local brands across the Nordics, Baltics, and Central Europe, ensuring the legacy of the Znojmia name continues under a global corporate umbrella.
