MADETA
Czech Republic's largest dairy processor (founded 1902, 1,500-1,999 staff) operating 4 plants and processing over 400m L milk per year across cheese, yogurt, butter, blue cheese and UHT lines.
We are more than one hundred years old. Actually, we are even older than that. If you go back to the beginnings of dairy farming in the South Bohemia region, a tradition upon which we build, you would have to go all the way back to 1838. It was back then that the first cheese makers were founded in the Schwarzenberg Court near České Budějovice.
Madeta itself was founded around the year 1902 in the town of Tábor. Back then it was named MLÉKÁRENSKÉ DRUŽSTVO TÁBORSKÉ (TÁBOR DAIRY COOP). It was the first letters of this name that were used to create the unforgettable MADETA brand name.
It survived countless historical events and thus also the changes that occurred in ownership that occurred in the 20th century in Central Europe. It changed as the world changed around it. Fortunately, most of these changes were for the better. That is why it is stronger today than it has ever been and is still just as renowned for its state-of-the-art technology and products of the highest quality.
