Hungary’s best known Bear ( Medve) is ninety years old

In 1925, the so-called box cheese was brought to Hungary by cheese master Stauffer Frigyes.

After the initial success, the heraldic animal of Bern canton of in Switzerland, which was the home country of Stauffer Frigyes was put on the packaging and, in 1930, Medve’s high-quality cheese was born.

A few years later, the product was exported to many countries in Europe and America, all the way to nationalization, which completely rewrote its history. On the 90th anniversary of its birth, one of the most successful Hungarian products, the Medve Cheese, regains its old iconic appearance.
