Kockens Ingefära

Kockens is one of Sweden's most historic spice brands, known for its iconic green-capped glass jars. The product shown is ground ginger (Ingefära), a staple in Swedish culinary traditions. Originally established as a standalone brand, it has a long heritage dating back to the early 20th century in Malmö.

Today, Kockens is a prominent brand within the portfolio of Culinar, which operates under the Lyckeby brand family. While the spices themselves are sourced globally based on the best available agricultural conditions for each plant, the processing, blending, and packaging primarily take place in Sweden to ensure high quality and safety standards. The ultimate ownership lies with Sveriges Stärkelseproducenter (Swedish Starch Producers Association), a farmer-owned cooperative based in Kristianstad, Sweden, ensuring that the brand remains firmly under Swedish control and agricultural stewardship.
