OUR HISTORY
In
1896 Carl Kruegermann started producing pickles in the small German
town of Luebbenau located 60 miles south-east of Berlin. Luebbenau
is located in the picturesque Speewald (Spree-river forest)
renowned for fertlle soil, good weather and the abundance of
quality cucumbers, cabbage, red beets and horseradish. Locals
preserved these crops and fermented pickles, fresh packed pickles
in vinegar, sauerkraut, reed beets and horseradish became the
culinary art of the region.
Kurt Kruegermann is still
very involved in the busness but day to day operations are the
resposibilities of sons Greg and Carl. Mom, Helga Kruegermann still
controls accounting and the money.The original business
in Luebbenau has neen back in family hands since the fall of the
wall in 1989. Kurts brother Ernst Kruegermann and son Mathias
immediatly began manufacturing products under the Kruegermann label
and are today making the same high quality products they are known
for. www.kruegermann.de
