Breitsamer & Ulrich<\/h1>\n\n

Third Generation Honey Specialists<\/h2>\n\n
<\/div>\n
\n\t\n\n
\n\t\t\t\n\n

The company history of the Breitsamer family begins in the 1930s. It started with a small shop for milk and honey in Munich. After the war, the honey from their own apiary wasn\u2019t enough anymore. Thus it was additionally purchased from other apiaries, mainly in the southern Bavarian region. In over 85 years and three generations, the Breitsamer family has constantly improved their knowledge about honey as a natural product. Just like company founder Johann Breitsamer knew every beekeeper personally in the beginning, it is still important to us to visit and check on our contractual beekeepers on a regular basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Franken, the Ulrich company history developed in a similar way. Georg Ulrich, the company founder, began jarring and trading honey in the 1950s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Johann Breitsamer and Georg Ulrich know each other from beekeeper days and association meetings. They realised their similarities very early on. Breitsamer was the honey family in Upper Bavaria, Ulrich the honey family in Franconia, so it was obvious that both families would join to become THE Bavarian honey specialist. A perfect partnership \u2013 then and now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In our family company, Breitsamer & Ulrich, everything revolves around the delicious natural product of honey. We focus on first class quality and authentic flavour of the honey.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Robert Breitsamer and Thomas Ulrich are now leading the family company in its third generation. Both are united by the passion for honey and pride in the company tradition. This tradition is committed to quality, which is why our company is certified according to the International Featured Standard Food, among others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Therefore, the honey\u2019s journey from the bees to a finished product is always comprehensible for you as our costumer. It is our goal to not offer you as many exotic honeys as possible, but few and good ones.<\/p>\n\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n
