Poiret

The "beautiful story" of Sirop de Liège dates back to 1902! Clément Meurens, the first of that name, left his father's farm to become, as he firmly hoped, "a real syrup spread professional ". For him, it was out of the question to make fruit spread just for his friends and neighbors. Looking ahead, he dreamed of distributing his syrup on a large scale, without skimping on the means. To achieve his aim, he decided to install his firm in Aubel, next to the railway and the station. It immediately became apparent that with the railway he could stock up easily and directly with raw materials, and efficiently distribute his finished product. Clément Meurens was one of those ambitious men who dared to take risks and think big. He also launched himself successfully into the making of POMONA®, an apple and sugar beet syrup, together with POIRET, a delicious apple and pear syrup, with no added sugar.
