Regional brand Typical Harz

The Typisch Harz Delicacy Box is a special surprise for business partners, employees, as well as family and friends, available exclusively during the Advent season. The content is newly put together every year. Our long-term partner, Lebenshilfe Goslar, carefully packs the six products, all awarded with the regional brand, into a decorative presentation box in Harz design.

Every late summer, we select the products for the new Delicacy Box and then inform Harz-based companies as well as the partners of the Harz Tourism Association about the pre-order options. At the same time, we also provide the order form for end customers right here. Delivery and shipping of the boxes start at the end of November, so the Typisch Harz Delicacy Boxes will reach you in time for the Advent season.

If required and with a sufficient quantity, companies can also order the Typisch Harz Delicacy Box outside the Advent season as a customised special edition. The lead time is about four weeks. If you’re interested, we’d be very happy to receive an email with your ideas – or just give us a call on Tel. 05321 340430. We’ll be happy to advise you.
 

More than 60 dedicated “Typical Harz” producers create over 700 exceptional products that combine the very best our region has to offer. Behind every outstanding product is a story – and above all, people. Some proudly continue what their parents or grandparents once built. Others have had the courage, as newcomers, to turn their hobby into a career. They are all united by one thing: their passion for their products and their connection to the Harz, with its unique nature and traditions.

Get to know the people behind the Typical Harz products – their faces, stories, and ideas. 

The Harz Tourism Association is the organisation responsible for the regional brand “Typical Harz”. Accordingly, the catchment area of the regional brand covers the association’s territory. Only businesses based and producing in the districts of Harz, Mansfeld-Südharz, Goslar, the former district of Osterode am Harz, and Nordhausen can apply for the label for individual products. The label is awarded in nine product groups, each with its own defined award criteria. The application and all necessary documents must be submitted to the Harz Tourism Association. An expert commission advises and decides on the granting of the label. It is awarded for a period of three years and must then be reapplied for.

The expert commission includes representatives of the agricultural marketing organisations of Lower Saxony and Saxony-Anhalt, representatives from among the producers, tourism experts from the region, and the management of the Harz Tourism Association. At the quarterly meetings, new applications for certification and recertifications are discussed and voted on. Another area of responsibility is the further development of the regional brand.
