About Gmyrek
Gmyrek Fleisch- und Wurstwaren GmbH & Co. KG is a food industry company in the delicatessen and sausage products segment, founded in 1904 by master butcher Karl Gmyrek in Gleiwitz (Silesia). After the Second World War, the company found its new home in Gifhorn, Lower Saxony, where it is based today with a technology center, factory outlet and administration as well as five butcher shops in Gifhorn and Wolfsburg. Following traditional recipes, well over 100 products are produced, including scalded sausage, cooked sausage, aspic products, short-ripened raw sausage, cooked cured meats and soups. Meat and poultry from QS-certified operations in Lower Saxony and North Rhine-Westphalia are processed; an in-house smokehouse with fresh beechwood is used. Customers include food retail, discounters, the butcher trade and the factory outlet. As part of the international corporate group Group of Butchers, the company combines the traditional values of a former family business with the structures of an international group.
