Solent

WE PRODUCE DELIGHT

Solent processes and packages nuts and dried fruits at two locations. It also produces chocolate bars in one of the largest and most cutting-edge plants in Europe in Übach-Palenberg.

CHOCOLATE AND MORE

Solent is the company for tasty chocolates and healthy snacks. We have been producing a large selection of chocolate for fifteen years now, and are today one of the most successful chocolate producers on the market. We process and package pistachios, almonds, walnuts and more. We produce our dried fruits in single varieties and as mixtures. Our products are available at Lidl and Kaufland.

We process tens of thousands of tonnes of chocolate and dried fruits every year, and deliver our products to over 30 countries. Solent employs around 600 food experts who are fully up to speed with our high quality standards. We continuously ensure these quality levels through strict specifications and controls on the raw products. We only work with selected suppliers and closely monitor the products using state-of-the-art analysis technology. We also arrange for our products to be tested by independent, accredited institutions on a regular basis.

QUANTITY AND QUALITY

The taste and quality of our products are our highest priority. We never forget that – even when we have many tasks and work steps at hand.

Goodness for the Soul

We produce a wide range of different chocolates. Our Alpine milk chocolate is particularly popular. However, our assortment goes beyond chocolate. We have been packing nuts and dried fruits from the very start. In recent years, we have expanded our range with delicious additions such as our nut and nut-and-fruit mixes.

GOOD IDEAS
PROTECT THE
ENVIRONMENT

We always think about the potential for savings too, which can help us to reduce our consumption of raw materials.
