For more than 122 years, generations of the Bahlsen family have made European biscuits, to be enjoyed by generations of biscuit lovers. Bahlsen's origins lie in the entrepreneurial spirit of its founder, Hermann Bahlsen, who launched his business in 1889, in Hannover, Germany, where his descendants carry on the company today. Proud to be known as the largest family-run biscuit producer in the world, the Bahlsens maintain the twin standards that their grandfather established, of traditional quality and innovative improvements.
