Proud of our Origins
A true Kiwi icon.
Since 1915, DYC has been supplying New Zealanders with a range of high quality vinegar products.
DYC vinegar is still made the way our forefathers did. Slowly. By natural fermentation.
DYC (Dominion Compressed Yeast Co. Ltd) was established in Christchurch during 1915 as a manufacturer of compressed yeast for the baking and brewing industries within New Zealand. In earlier days, the production of compressed yeast was usually associated with the manufacture of alcohol in some form. Consequently DYC became a manufacturer of two types of vinegar, Bottled Vinegar and Aromalt Draught Vinegar.
In 1960 the company name was changed from Dominion Yeast Company Ltd to DYC.
Today DYC is still proudly kiwi owned and made in New Zealand by natural fermentation.
