We create experiences.

We love what we do because we awaken enjoyment and the memory of unique flavour experiences.

We bring the joy of food to life.

We create taste
that consumers crave.

Taste is the spice of life. Taste is highly individual. With our extensive international expertise together with in-house product development, sensory laboratories and spice sommeliers, we create a wide range of products that give dishes a unique flavour and inspire to meet new taste experiences.

With our strong brands such as Fuchs, Ostmann, Bart, Cosmin and Bamboo Garden, we not only offer consumers a unique range of products on their taste journey. With individually customised offers, we are a reliable partner for wholesale and industrial customers as well as food retailers, and also support the hotel, restaurant and catering trades on their journey.

We add emotion to food.

Taste accompanies us throughout life. Its power stimulates an emotional response. Our memories of the experiences we associate with taste play an important role in this. With our products, we give food the taste that people long for.

We are driven by the wish to inspire people around the world with special taste experiences, and to create enjoyment, pleasure and positive memories. To achieve this, 3,100 colleagues give their best every day, and are constantly on a journey of discovery in order to offer our customers highly individual flavour experiences from around the world.

We act responsibly.

We act responsibly.

As an internationally active company in the food sector, healthy ecosystems are especially important to us – in social, ecological and economic terms. The procurement of most spices and herbs is characterised by a global supply chain: Many of our raw materials grow in distant countries because that is where the best climatic growing conditions prevail. Therefore, we do our best to conserve resources, protect the climate and improve the living and working conditions of the people along our entire supply chain. We want to contribute to this as much as possible by consistently and permanently focussing our sustainability strategy on the four areas of action that we regard as essential, and by committing ourselves to an international climate strategy.

We lead the race.

Our many years of international experience, excellent market knowledge and comprehensive expertise make us a company that shows the way forward in our markets.

Dieter Fuchs, our founder, was already a creative and innovative visionary with a pioneering spirit. Together with the steady growth of our company, which is now globally active, our experience and know-how are also growing in all the specialist areas from sensory to technological expertise. We meet changes, new culinary trends, and the individual market and customer requirements arising from them, with dynamism, flexibility and a large amount of curiosity and courage. Because this is the only way in which we can fulfil our customers’ wishes with outstanding quality, and are able to take a leading position in the markets.
