What we believe in

Three things we never compromise on

01

Open the jar and you're done

We believe good food shouldn't take compromise or effort. We bring out the best in vegetables. You open the jar and you're done.

02

Quality starts with the ingredient

We believe quality starts with good ingredients and proven recipes. That's why we choose our vegetables carefully, look after their natural taste and prepare them so you can enjoy their full flavour.

03

We sign it with our own name

We sign every product with our own name. That's a commitment. So for generations we've made sure that anything under the Urbanek brand that reaches your hands is just right.

More flavour, every day

1984A garage in Łowicz

50 square metres and a dream

In 1984 it all began in a 50-square-metre garage in Łowicz. Four employees, one machine and a dream of running their own business. Five years later the garage was too small. The first plant was built and the business picked up pace.

Did the brothers imagine back then that their brand would one day be on shelves and tables in 25 countries?

1990A turning point

A push to grow

The real push to grow came in 1990. A French importer visited our small production hall and saw potential in the people, their commitment and their determination.

His support helped finance our first larger batches of raw materials and equipment. That gave us extra momentum: we could scale up production and send our first jars of vegetable preserves abroad.

1998Mongolia

Jars in suitcases

First Europe, then Asia soon after. The first Urbanek products reached Mongolia. Not through big distributors, but... in the suitcases of Mongolian students we'd befriended. Our Danube-style salad became so popular there that in 1998 the Bracia Urbanek plant was on the route of the President of Mongolia's official visit.

Today Urbanek is one of the best-known Polish food brands on the Mongolian market.

TodayFour decades later

Responsible for every jar

A lot has changed in over four decades. The small garage has become a modern plant that we keep expanding and upgrading. Every year we process thousands of tonnes of vegetables, and our products reach millions of homes. What matters most hasn't changed: our responsibility for every jar.

Because the Urbanek name on the label isn't just a brand name. It's a promise that everything you find inside is exactly what we'd want to put on our own family table.
