ABOUT COMPANY PRODUCTS CAREER CONTACTS Ehrmann's story Ehrmann plant Excursion news Quality assurance Charity Ehrmann's story The history of the modern company "Ehrmann" began in 1929, when Alois Ehrmann acquired a plot in the town of Oberschönegg, in the province of Allgäu (southern Germany). In the sixties of the twentieth century, the Ermann company was the first in the country to produce yoghurts with fruit pieces. This delicacy made a splash among German buyers. In those days, no one had ever produced anything like this! Dynamically developing from year to year, the company gradually acquired an all-German reputation and in 1987 entered the European market. Ermann AG has been owned by the Ermann family for almost 100 years. Now the company is run by the third generation of the family in the person of Christian Ehrmann, son of Alois Ehrmann. In 1995, Christian Ehrmann successfully completed his training in the specialty "master of the dairy industry", then received another education in the direction of "specialist in economics and production organization". Two years later, Christian Ehrmann became one of the business leaders. His first big project was the construction and opening of a plant in the village of RAOS, Russia. Production started in 2000. Since 2004 Christian Ehrmann has been a member of the Management Board of Ehrmann AG, and in 2006 he took over as Chairman of the Management Board. Export of products to Russia and other CIS countries began in 1994. Russian consumers immediately appreciated the high quality of the new brand from Germany. By 1997, the turnover of products sold in Russia reached 100 million German marks, and the owners of the company decided to open production in Russia. In September 1998, the first stone of the new plant was laid in the Ramensky district. Just a year and a half later, in March 2000, the first products were launched.
