Thüringen is a hot spot for the food industry. The Free State in the center of Germany enjoys a towering reputation for food: Thüringer Rostbratwurst, Thüringen potato dumplings, Köstritzer Schwarzbier, Nordhäuser Doppelkorn, Greußener Salami, Altenburger Ziegenkäse, Mühlhäuser plum compote or Erfurt pasta from Germany‘s oldest pasta factory – Thüringen‘s delicacies are on everyone‘s lips. No wonder the food industry has occupied the top rungs in Thüringen‘s revenue statistics for years.

People here know all about great food. Benefit from the know-how of Thüringen‘s experts and from the state‘s great reputation as a producer of world-class food.

The Free State actively fosters goodwill for foods made in Thüringen. It engages in agricultural marketing, protects designations of origin and issues the „Geprüfte Qualität –Thüringen“ seal of quality.

n 2005, sales reached EUR 2.992 billion. That makes the food industry the single biggest sector in terms of sales in Thüringen.

The mostly small and medium-sized companies employ close to 18,000 people. That adds up to more than 12 percent of the total workforce – 3 percent more than the national average.
