At Kräuter Mix, the name speaks for itself - not only on account of the proprietors Christoph and Bernhard Mix, the third and fourth generation of the family to run the company, which was established in 1919 and employs 450 people. Kräuter Mix supplies medicinal and culinary herbs, dried vegetables and spices as individual ingredients and blends for the healthy, balanced nutrition of pets and farm animals.

The supply business in the heart of Germany has thus become a significant transit point for industry and retailers dealing in food, herbal medicines, tea, extracts, spirits and pet food.Many of the natural products manufactured at Kräuter Mix, which are also available in controlled organic quality, can be found in the vegetable and herb mixes of well-known pet food brands.
