History
1949 - Establishment of Cukry Nyskie
The history of the Cukry Nyskie Work Cooperative began over 70 years ago, when on February 5, 1949, the decision was made to establish the Cukry Nyskie Work Cooperative by several members. The company’s headquarters was located at Aleja Wojska Polskiego 53.
1951 - Handover of the "Nysa" factory to the "Cukry Nyskie" Cooperative
On January 1, 1951, the “Nysa” factory (founded in 1910 by brothers Paweł and Oskar Reichelt at Al. Wojska Polskiego 53), which was adapted to the production of candies, gingerbread and biscuits, was transferred for a fee to the “Cukry Nyskie” Labor Cooperative. The worn-out factory was used until the end of the year, after which it was completely renovated.
1951 - Takeover of the "Nyskie Konfekty" factory by the "Cukry Nyskie" Cooperative
In 1951, the Cooperative took over the second plant Gingerbread Factory – the so-called “Nyskie Konfekty” at Aleja Wojska Polskiego 9. It was former German property taken over by the State Treasury. The buildings built in 1924 were adapted for the production of confectionery products. The facility was owned by Franz Springer’s family before and during World War II. This facility became the headquarters of Cukry Nyskie.
1953 - Opening of new production lines.
From the beginning of its activity, Cukry Nyskie produced the so-called wet bread (cakes), candies, holiday accessories made of sugar (sugar figurines). Gradually, the offer was expanded to include the production of biscuits and gingerbread. In 1953, a production line for baking dry wafers, candies and lollipops was opened. The next addition to the offer was high-quality chocolate couverture.
1960 - Transfer of the Cooperative under the direct supervision of "Społem"
In the late 1950s The difficult market situation forced the cooperative members to transfer “Cukry Nyskie” under the direct supervision of “Społem”. On January 1, 1960, a plant called “Społem”, the Consumer Cooperative Association in Warsaw – Zakłady Wytwórcze “Cukry Nyskie” in Nysa, was established, which was to operate on the basis of full internal economic settlement. During the operation of ZW “Cukry Nyskie”, production was increased, the product range was expanded, equipment and production lines were replaced and its expansion was carried out.
1990 - Return of the "Cukry Nyskie" Work Cooperative
On October 1, 1990, the plant was transformed again into the “Cukry Nyskie” Labor Cooperative, which allowed its employees to be independent in conducting HR and payroll policies and in establishing and implementing development programs. These opportunities were fully utilized despite the political changes in Poland and rapid changes in the market economy.
2000+ - Further development of the plant
The period since 2000 is a time of further development of the plant. During this period, many investments were made, including: an additional production hall was built, a high-storage warehouse for finished products with an area of 1,300 m² was built, production and office rooms were modernized and renovated, and two new production lines for baking wafers were launched. In addition, the machinery park was expanded with a new line for the production of biscuits and crackers.
In April 2007 Based on an audit conducted by TÜV Nord Polska, Cukry Nyskie received the BRC Global Standard Food Class A certificate.
