Estonia’s largest bakery producer

Eesti Pagar is Estonia’s largest bakery producer. Under the watchful eye of skilled bakers and confectioners, dozens of different bread, pastry and confectionery products are made in our factories in Paide and Võru, reaching thousands of people every day.

Our well-known brand has adorned our products since 2004, but the company’s history goes much further back — to 1914, when the then Antsla Consumers’ Cooperative opened its first bakery. Eesti Pagar considers this small bakery to be its very first predecessor.

Our product range is broad: from rye bread, table bread and toast bread to ciabattas, cakes and other baked goods. In addition to retail, we also supply products to restaurants, cafés and hotels, and 30% of our production reaches nearly 20 foreign countries, including Finland, Sweden, Denmark, Germany and the United States.

A balance between tradition and innovation

Eesti Pagar aims to offer the best traditional and modern products, made from local raw materials and using contemporary technology. We honour classic products with a long history, such as rye bread, while also developing new products that contain less salt and sugar, more fibre, and more wholegrain.

Eesti Pagar develops with the times and evolving consumer expectations, and every year we invest several million euros in developing our production. We recently opened a new production line that enables us to make products from natural wheat sourdough, such as different buns, ciabattas and baguettes. In the near future, we will expand our Paide factory by doubling its production area and adding a large, fully automated frozen-goods warehouse, which will ensure we always have a one-month supply of bakery products for the whole of Estonia. For us, it is important to contribute to food security, supply security, and the continuity of local food culture.

Growth hand in hand with responsibility

We follow the principles of sustainable production in all our activities — from energy and resource use to waste recycling and food loss reduction. We use renewable energy, have joined the Rainforest Alliance programme, and prefer certified and responsibly produced raw materials. We consider it important that our growth goes hand in hand with environmental care, and we periodically review our environmental impact to find new ways to reduce it.
