Herrmann Kräuter

red basil

Originally from Iran and India, basil is nowadays primarily associated with Italian cuisine. Its typical spicy fresh taste is also very popular in this country. It can be used both as a garnish and as a main component, for example, in Pesto Genovese.

Parsley, chives, and dill: these are the roots of Herrmann from Neuss, dating back to 1946 when Willi Herrmann Senior founded the company. His grandson Willi, who is already leading our family business in the 3rd generation, exclusively focused it on herb cultivation in the late 1980s. Since then, we have stood for fresh, fine cut herbs and cresses. And for natural enjoyment.

Today, our family business sees itself as a modern nursery and processing operation that our customers can rely on. Meanwhile, around 200 tons of freshly cut herbs leave our cold storage facilities every week, precisely on schedule, to prove their good taste to wholesale customers, in gastronomy, or to end consumers. The majority comes from our own open fields and greenhouses. To ensure consistently high quality, we also rely on certified partner farms in the south during the colder months, some of which grow the best herbs exclusively for us.
