Bezgluten

What Bezgluten does

Bezgluten (legal name: BEZGLUTEN SP. Z O.O.) is a Polish specialty food manufacturer founded in 2004 and headquartered in Koniusza, Poland (Posądza 128). The company produces and supplies gluten-free and low-protein food products, operating a portfolio of more than 250 SKUs that span bread, rolls, baguettes, tortillas, pasta, cookies, wafers, biscuits, breakfast cereals, flour mixes, breadcrumbs, dried yeast, snacks, and ready mixes. Its products address three distinct consumer needs: standard gluten-free foods for people with celiac disease and gluten intolerance, specialized low-protein (PKU) products for individuals with phenylketonuria, and selected vegan-certified items for health-conscious and vegan buyers.

The company's core technology is built around in-house R&D laboratories that develop proprietary gluten-free formulations using alternative flours and starches (rice, corn, millet, teff) combined with hydrocolloids (xanthan gum, guar gum, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose) to replicate the texture of gluten-based products. For the PKU line, recipes are calibrated to control phenylalanine, tyrosine, and leucine content per serving. Manufacturing operates under BRC Food v.7 and IFS v.6 international food safety and quality management standards, with strict raw material analysis to prevent gluten cross-contamination. The company has accumulated more than 20 years of formulation know-how and has won multiple industry and consumer-voted product awards between 2004 and 2015.

Bezgluten's business model is primarily B2C direct-to-consumer via its own e-commerce storefront (bezgluten.cz), available in Polish and Czech language variants, with online payment including buy-now-pay-later options. This is supplemented by retail and wholesale distribution throughout Poland and active export operations into the Czech Republic and other countries, supported by a dedicated export department ([email protected]). Revenue is generated on a unit-pricing, pay-as-you-go basis with no subscription or recurring component. The company is privately held as a Polish Sp. z o.o. (private limited company) with no disclosed parent, institutional investors, or external funding.
