One of the most beautiful jewels of the Queen's crown- praised the chronicler in the middle ages. And he was right.

With its unspoiled assets the Eastern rim of the Northern Mountains is even today a jewel of the nation. According to environmentalists, one of the last stronghold in Eastern-Middle Europe, as far as preservation of values is concerned.

Even the our national anthem mentions the unique natural endowments of the region, the art of wine-making and grape-growing, since Tokaj, as part of the region became world famous.

But in the heartland and the rim of the Zemplén, man-built ancient monuments give testimony of the Rákóczi family and the glorius past.

A white spot on the map, Zempén's chastity is an economic disadvantage according to many, but it can also be a virtue and can be capitalized on, providing living for several families.Besides the far-famed wine the treasures of the mountains, earlier gold, these days the rich mineral resources offer themselves, the soil hands its gold on plate. The man of the third century, using the soil in a knowledgeable way, may wisely turn to Zemplén, about which he knows, we didn't inherit it from our grandparents, we merely look after it for our grandchildren.


introduction:

According to the inhabitants, the people living here, the enterpreneurs of the region were born to capitalize on the treasures of the soil. And really, the laid table of forests and fileds offers its fruits without limits. All you have to do is to find them in our surroundings with good judgement. Of course it is not enough these days, you have to deliver them in a suitable, eye-appealing form where it can be affored. And today we might say, where it is expected, looked for.

about the company:
The family owned Nektár Food Products Ltd was formed almost one and a half decade ago, in 1989. It is located in Zemplén, North-Eastern Hungary, in the Tokaj Hillside region. The enterprise was based on the processing and marketing of locally grown agricultural produces. This meant mainly the buying up of walnut kernel and honey, and their selling in Hungary and abroad. With the countinuous turning back of capital our entraprise has been expanding both its field of activizy and its product range.

One of the most popular products is the honey processed int the Abaújszántó factory. With its excellent quality, the honey, which is processed with modern technology has international potential. The most important objective of our development policy was the enlargement of the factory.

The new factory with suitable capacity was built in Ond, near Szerencs. As further development, a new packaging facility was built. To serve the countinuously growing export import activity, a customs area was created. A group of the raw materials need cooling to keep their original quality. That is why we built our state of the art cold storage in Szerencs-Ond in 2001. The company has an own logistic background, with capacities between 1 and 20 tons. The number of employees has been constantly rising with the expension of the scope of activity. Presently 100 people are employed, but during the high season of food prcessing the number of employees can reach 150.

We buy our home products mainly from farmers. We have been in contact with about 5000 farmers for years, contributing to the development of the living conditions of these families-

The careful assorting and processing methods may guarantee that Nektár Ltd's products will be popular in the long run.
That is why we put the excellent, high quality assorted walnut kernel, poppy seeds, almond, hazelnut, raisin on the market. The proper mixture of these make up the popular students' titbit. But Nektár Ltd doesn't stop at the country border. Meeting our costumers' demands we offer ground coco in eye-appealing package, but we also sweeten costumers' days with honey, and our wide product range includes different kinds of beans and pulses.

In our home sale a great proportion of our products are directly delivered to retail food stores.

Export sales make up about half of the total sales. Our main clients are located in the European Union, in Austria, Germany, Italy, France, The Netherlands and Belgium.
