Broad range of services
With a range of more than 8,000 products the Fuchs Group offers spices, culinary trends and food technology for every target group and every need in the food retail, food service and food industry.

From seed to kitchen: the special feature is that the Fuchs Group exercises an active influence on the quality and taste of its products along the entire value creation chain. The company has followed a very clear purchasing philosophy for decades: they prefer to obtain their raw materials as far as possible directly from the growers or producers.

Hereby, the company can safeguard the unbroken traceability and a seamless influence on the quality of its products – from agricultural cultivation and the transport to finished product.
A traditional company shapes the global spice market
The self-image of the Fuchs Group is moulded by the pioneering spirit, the curiosity and the boldness of the company founder, Dieter Fuchs: 68 years ago, Dieter Fuchs transported small packages of pepper and salt on a bike to his customers. Today, his enthusiasm, his ambition and his entrepreneurial farsightedness still characterize the self-image of Fuchs Group. According to the aim of the company’s founder it is still their aspiration to continuously rediscover the world of spices, to seek out trends and to develop and market intelligent product and packaging ideas for their customers and partners.

In the world of taste Fuchs represents many years of experience, an excellent knowledge of the market, and comprehensive specialist competence. The company feels that they have a special obligation to handle resources responsibly and sustainably as their success is highly dependent on intact economical, ecological and social systems in the spice-growing regions. They obtain raw materials un-milled and directly from the producer, and process them using state-of-the-art technology in their own spice mill. Through that approach the Fuchs Group relies on its many years of experience and comprehensive specialist competence – and differentiates itself from other suppliers.
