Unparalleled Products and Production

 

VOM FASS carries the largest, freshest bulk selection of natural and organic culinary oils and fruit and balsamic vinegars in the world. VOM FASS passionately focuses on product quality from the field to the table and establishes close relationships with growers and producers to ensure uncompromising quality. Products are sourced from the Swiss Alps to the shores of the Mediterranean Sea, with additional consideration to land stewardship, current growing conditions, maturation periods, and extraction methods.

When standards are completely satisfied, the products are sealed in patented, airtight containers and shipped fresh from around the world, ensuring they come in contact with air and sunlight only at the moment of tasting or bottling. Our US distribution center keeps you stocked as you order according to your needs and preferences. VOM FASS franchise owners benefit from healthy product margins and an amazing, proprietary product mix that appeals to customers looking for unparalleled quality, taste, and nutrition.

 

 

A Healthy Trend

 

The health benefits of artisan oils and aged vinegars have been well-documented for centuries. Europeans have long known the health benefits of leisurely dining on meals of fish, vegetables, fruits, olives, and crusty, whole-grain bread served with delicious, fresh olive oil and a nice glass of wine. For thousands of years, residents of the Mediterranean coastal region have enjoyed a delicious diet high in plant foods and monounsaturated, "good" fats (like olive oil). They don't think of their eating habits as a diet but simply a way of life. And it's this way of life that brings an ever growing number of customers to VOM FASS, as evidenced by a rise in consumer spending for the last several years in each of our product categories

 

Training and Support

 

In 1994, soon after taking over his father's import business near the famous Waldburg Castle in Germany, Johannes Kiderlen reorganized his shops to focus on four main products: fruit vinegars, exquisite oils, select wines, and exclusive spirits, all direct from the cask. This concept allowed the business to fulfill his customers' requests for sampling Europe's finest products and decanting them into attractive bottles or jars of their own choosing. The knowledge Johannes gained in developing his shops evolved into his company's guiding mission – "Only the best, always." Only the very best ingredients that can be found will be used in the manufacture of VOM FASS oils, vinegars, and spirits.  The business continues today with Johannes son, Thomas Kiderlen who is now at the helm of the company as CEO.  His drive and passion for the business continues to elevate the companies position in the very competitive food and beverage marketplace.  The company continues to evolve and the US is now the focus for meeting and exceeding growth targets in the near future.
