Mestemacher

Welcome to
Mestemacher – the lifestyle bakery

Mestemacher was originally founded as a small village bakery in 1871 and is now world market leader of organic rye bread, characterized by its long shelf-life without the use of preservatives. As the first producer of packaged whole meal breads of controlled organic agriculture, we have been promoting the growth and existence of organically cultivating agriculturists for more than 30 years. Since the first production in our Gütersloh manufacturing facility with our own large mill, we have developed delicate flavours each year. Safeguarding the natura environment is vital and Mestemacher takes great pride in actively promoting the ecology and protecting nature.

Health bread creations

“Your gourmet bread really is something special!”, declared a well-known bread expert at the Symposium for Fine Food and Drink. Yes, we from Mestemacher are proud of our bread range and products which complement the self-service shelves of food retailers and supermarkets.

Mestemacher is best known for its original Westphalian Pumpernickel and the different varieties of wholemeal bread. International bread specialities are also sold under the well known brand name. The most well known product is the Westphalian Pumpernickel. This dark bread from Westphalia is sold with a designation of origin logo “Westfälisch” which means “original Westphalian”. The brand Mestemacher differs in character from other suppliers because of its distinctive package design. Based on the principle “one face to the customer” you will find this on all our packaged bread.
