Ünschi Härdöpfel is now also available as potato chips
The Ünschi brand is growing. The initiators have now produced potato chips from potatoes grown locally in the Landwasser Valley for the first time. The potato chips are to be sold at the World Economic Forum in Davos in January, among other events. "We want to offer our customers something local," says Ralf Stucki from Live Lab.

The Zurich-based live communication agency is heavily involved in the annual meeting of the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos and has supported Ünschi with money and working hours. The sponsors also include the NextGenerations association, Bio Laden Davos, DavosWorks and Richnerstutz. The cardboard packaging for the potato chips was produced by the Vögeli printing company in Langnau i.E. in accordance with the strict Cradle to Cradle recycling rules.
Ünschi relies on the local production of food. Potatoes have been grown in the Landwasser Valley since 2022. In the first year, 3 tons of Ünschi Härdöpfel were harvested, the following year around twice as much. 2024 was a poor year due to the wet summer, with a yield of 4 tons.
Water has also been added to the Ünschi family. Together with the Winterthur-based start-up Fill me and the Austrian water specialist BWT, the initiators have developed a solution that allows providers from the catering industry to bring clean water from local sources to the table, both carbonated and still. Ünschi water will also be on offer at the World Economic Forum.
