Hellmann's Real Mayonnaise

Hellmann's Real Mayonnaise is a renowned condiment brand originating from the United States. Founded in 1913 by Richard Hellmann, a German immigrant, the brand began in a New York deli where Hellmann sold his wife's mayonnaise recipe. The product's popularity led to its expansion, and in 1932, Richard Hellmann, Inc. was acquired by Best Foods, Inc., a company that also produced mayonnaise and operated primarily on the West Coast of the United States. In 2000, Best Foods was acquired by Unilever, a British multinational company specializing in consumer goods, including food, beverages, cleaning agents, and personal care products. Today, Hellmann's is recognized as the world's No. 1 mayonnaise brand, offering a range of products made with high-quality ingredients like 100% cage-free eggs and responsibly sourced oils. The brand is marketed under the name Hellmann's in regions such as the United States east of the Rocky Mountains, Latin America, Europe, Australia, Canada, India, and Pakistan. In contrast, the Best Foods brand is used in areas including the United States west of the Rocky Mountains, East Asia, Southeast Asia, Australia, and New Zealand. Hellmann's commitment to quality and sustainability continues to resonate with consumers worldwide, making it a staple in kitchens globally.
