Our two OeTTINGER GETRÄNKE sites in Braunschweig (Lower Saxony) and Oettingen (Bavaria) have once again garnered recognition for long-standing product quality this year. This was the Braunschweig brewery’s sixth award, and the eleventh for the Oettingen brewery overall. The awards are handed out by the DLG Test Center Food of the German Agricultural Society (DLG) in recognition of manufacturers whose products have undergone regular, successful testing by the DLG for at least five years. These DLG awards are testament to the ongoing pursuit of quality at our family business.
CEO Stefan Blaschak says: “The majority of consumers are now aware that OeTTINGER GETRÄNKE not only offers a range of excellent beers, sodas, and ice teas, but also that these are top quality products at a fair price,” before adding: “These awards from the DLG experts for product quality are further proof that high-quality drinks don’t have to cost the earth.”
Our breweries and products regularly receive both national and international foodstuff awards for their excellent and long-standing product quality. These include nearly 200 DLG Gold medals, more than 100 DLG Silver medals, twelve regional awards and five federal awards, in addition to one “Best of the Best” prize.
The awards for long-standing product quality focus on businesses within the food and beverages industry that voluntarily submit their products for testing by the DLG experts. Only those who have successfully participated in the international quality audits with a minimum number of products are eligible for the award. Our third brewery site in Mönchengladbach did not submit the minimum number of products required for this year, but nevertheless won the DLG State Award 2023 just a few months ago.
