Meet the Unternehmensgruppe Theo Müller: from a village dairy to a food corporation
It is safe to say that every German has one of our products on their table almost every day, whether a dairy product, fish delicatessen, dressing or as an ingredient that we supply for other segments of the food industry, such as cheese for pizza or lactose and whey proteins for baby food. We also shape the industry internationally - whether in Great Britain, Poland, the Czech Republic, Italy or Israel.
Founded in 1896, the company is still 100 per cent family-owned today - with all the advantages this entails: Investments are not geared to short-term profit, but to long-term returns. At the same time, decisions are made quickly.
Part of the Unternehmensgruppe Theo Müller are strong dairy brands such as Müller, Weihenstephan or Landliebe. Private labels and basic dairy products complete the portfolio. In addition to the milk-processing subsidiaries, the group also includes the packaging company Optipack, the company's own truck workshop FTA and the logistics company Culina. Convenience food activities are also part of the group. The product range thus also includes wellknown brands in the sauces and fish specialities segment such as Homann, Lisner and Nadler.
We steer almost the entire value chain from our own hands - from packaging production to food manufacturing and transport.
The products of the Unternehmensgruppe Theo Müller are manufactured in 20 factories in Germany, Great Britain, the Czech Republic and Poland.
