Hellmann's Burger Dressing

Hellmann's Burger Dressing is a popular condiment used to enhance the flavor of burgers and sandwiches. The brand originated in the United States when Richard Hellmann, a German immigrant, began selling his wife's mayonnaise recipe at his deli in New York City in 1913. The distinct "Blue Ribbon" logo became synonymous with the brand's quality early on.

While the brand was born in the USA, it quickly expanded globally. In many European and Nordic markets, including Denmark, Hellmann's products are widely distributed and sometimes manufactured in regional facilities across Europe to meet local demand and sustainability goals. The manufacturing location can vary depending on the specific product line and target market.

Today, Hellmann's is owned by Unilever, a massive British multinational fast-moving consumer goods company. Unilever acquired the brand through its merger with Bestfoods in 2000. Under Unilever's ownership, Hellmann's has maintained its market-leading position by focusing on cage-free eggs and sustainable sourcing of oils.
