Schladerer , is a medium-sized company based in Staufen im Breisgau . The company mainly produces fruit brandies and fruit spirits (e.g. Black Forest raspberry spirit ).

history

The company's history begins with Sixtus Balthasar Schladerer (1790–1872), who was born in Bamlach on the Upper Rhine and started the fruit distillery in his father's house in 1813. His son Sixtus (1817–1901) moved to Staufen in 1844, where, after the wedding with the daughter of the Kreuz -wirt, he went to his inn, where he ran a distillery. He was followed in 1876 by his son Hermann (1846–1920), who continued to run the inn, which had since become Kreuz-Post by taking over the postal connection from Staufen to Krozingen and into the Münstertal . The inn included the distillery and property with vines, fields and orchards, on which mainly cherry trees stood.

Hermann's son Alfred took over the Feldbergerhof, while in 1919 his son Alfred (1892–1956), who had trained as a restaurateur in England and France, joined the company. He leased the Kreuz-Post and shifted the focus to the distillery. In 1932, together with a graphic artist Rose from Stuttgart, he developed the typical, product-typical, crystal-clear square bottle with relief, three-part labeling made of handmade paper and a red seal , which was registered as a trademark at the German Patent Office in 1939 . The seal is located in the upper third of the bottle and repeats the company coat of arms already shown in the cap as a stamp. At the same time, the site of a neighboring machine factory was acquired for the expansion of the distillery.

After Alfred Schladerer's death, his wife Greta managed the company, which had been converted into a GmbH, and Walter Ulmann (1917–2010) also joined the company from 1974 to 1987. The company premises have now been expanded in two steps to include the area of ​​the adjacent Staufen cloth factory, the Hercules chemical works and a piece of land owned by the city of Staufen.

In 1980 Nicolaus Schladerer-Ulmann took over the management of the company. He was the godson of Alfred Schladerer, whom Greta Schladerer had adopted after his death. When he died in 2004, the co-partner and co-managing director Heinrich Ulmann continued to manage it on his own until Philipp Schladerer-Ulmann, the son of Nicolaus Schladerer-Ulmann, was able to take over the sole management of the company after completing his training and an induction period in 2011. As Hotel-Gasthof Kreuz-Post , the business is still family-owned and belongs to Philips' sister, Sophie Schladerer.

In 2015 it became known that Schladerer is giving up a large part of the land and the buildings located on it since 1939 as part of a restructuring. In 2016 the city of Staufen bought an area of ​​4,000 square meters and a real estate company bought 7,000 square meters. The city has been included in the urban development program of the state of Baden-Wuerttemberg and wants to reorganize and develop this area and the one beyond the Neumagen.
