MARESI: Austrian Dairy Products Since 1955

MARESI is an Austrian dairy brand offering a range of coffee milk, dairy-based beverages such as Viennese Ice Coffee, and instant milk products for everyday use. Since 1955, MARESI products have been part of Austrian households and coffee culture.

The MARESI brand was established in Vienna in 1955. According to the brand's story, the name originated during a gathering in Vienna's Grinzing district. While discussing a newly developed shelf-stable milk product produced in Stainach, Austria, participants searched for a suitable brand name. One suggestion was “Maria Theresia”, followed by the Viennese nickname “Maresi”. The name was adopted, and the MARESI brand was born.

The first MARESI product was a 250 g bottle sealed with a crown cap. Its distinctive glass bottle and the iconic milkmaid illustration quickly made it recognizable on Austrian coffee tables. Over the decades, the brand has expanded its portfolio while maintaining its connection to Austrian dairy expertise.
