ABOUT US
Our History
The history of Knorr is a story of passion, exploration and innovation.
In 1838, Carl Heinrich Knorr opened a factory in Heilbronn, Germany supplying chicory to the German coffee industry.
Mr. Knorr began to experiment with drying vegetables and seasonings, preserving their nutritional value and flavour. This led to the launch of Knorr’s first dried soup range across the European continent in 1873. This progressive breakthrough led to a series of improvements in technique and development of new products.
Since 1838, our food philosophy has centered on high quality, which we maintain in every one of our products.
In 1957, flagship Knorr brands were sold in only eight countries and by the year 2000, Knorr products were sold in nearly ninety countries around the world. The same year led to an important milestone; Knorr joined the Unilever family.
Knorr was launched in India in 1996, and now we have irresistible soups, delicious noodles and flavourful masalas.
