Details

Tarvo is a brand name for a light brown type of bread, which is characterized by a soft crust and the fact that there are no grains or seeds in the bread. The Tarvo brand was introduced in 1933, making it the oldest surviving Dutch bread brand. The name is a contraction of wheat and fox, the name of the miller who developed the special malt flour from which tarvo is baked. In 2004 more than 7 million tarvo breads were sold. In 2005, the flour producer Meneba sold the brand to the bakery organizations Bakkersland, Bake Five and Kamps Quality Bakeries, which founded the VOF Tarvo for the exploitation of the brand.
