The Palatinus GmbH was founded in 1957 Swiss trading company based in Herrliberg . During the GDR era, it sold gifts for citizens of the GDR in a catalog from its headquarters in Zurich . Similar to Jauerfood AG in Denmark, consumer goods could be given to GDR citizens via Palatinus in exchange for western currency . In contrast to Jauerfood AG, however, Palatinus GmbH expanded the product range on offer over the years to include a full range of mail order companies. The transactions were handled by Genex , whose contract company was Palatinus. As early as 1968, most transactions for Genex were processed through the companies Jauerfood and Palatinus. The company was liquidated in 2010.
