Herrmann Kräuter

Thyme

Originally growing on the coasts of the Mediterranean, thyme is still predominantly cultivated in southern European countries today. Its slightly sweet, strongly aromatic taste is reminiscent of southern cuisine even in terms of aroma. It is an essential ingredient in any Mediterranean spice mixture and often gives meat dishes and hearty soups their typical flavor.

Parsley, chives and dill: these are the roots of Herrmann from Neuss, which date back to 1946, when Willi Herrmann Senior founded the company. His grandson Willi, who is already the third generation to run our family business, converted it exclusively to herb cultivation at the end of the 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 gardening and packaging company that our customers can rely on. In the meantime, around 200 tons of freshly cut herbs leave our cold stores every week to prove their good taste to major customers, in the gastronomy sector or to end consumers. The majority comes from our own open-air areas and from our greenhouses. In order to guarantee consistently high quality, we also rely on certified partner companies in the south during the cold months, some of whom exclusively grow the best herbs for us.
