Thomy Gourmet Sahne-Meerrettich

Thomy Gourmet Sahne-Meerrettich (Creamy Horseradish) is a well-known condiment in central Europe. The brand Thomy was originally founded in Switzerland in 1930 when Hans Thomi added a 'y' to his name to create a brand for the first mustard sold in tubes. The brand is famous for pioneering the use of aluminum tubes for food products like mustard and mayonnaise.

Today, the brand is a major subsidiary of Nestlé, the world's largest food and beverage company. While the brand originated with the Swiss company Thomi & Franck AG, it has been part of the Nestlé portfolio since 1971. In the German market, Thomy products are primarily manufactured at the Nestlé plant in Neuss, Germany, though variations in production occur across Europe to meet regional demands. The ultimate ownership lies with Nestlé S.A., headquartered in Vevey, Switzerland.
