INSIDE THE CREAMERIES

We count on reliable partnerships with contracted village cheese dairies from around Switzerland. Each region of Switzerland produces different varieties of Swiss-made cheeses.

THE MARK OF AOP

The official quality mark AOP (Appellation d’Origine Protegée) is reserved for traditional products with long-standing regional origins. Once the Swiss Federal Office of Agriculture registers a protected designation, Emmi and other cheesemakers only use it for products that meet all requirements regarding quality, origin and production. When you buy Emmi cheese from Switzerland you’re not only supporting the livelihood of our farmers, cheesemakers and their families, you help preserve the cheesemaking traditions from centuries past and securing the promise that these cheeses will live on for future generations.
