In 1970, Karl Hüppin founded the butcher's shop Karl Hüppin Fleisch + Wurst. He found a small premises on Josefstrasse in Zurich, which he ran together with his wife Annemarie and two employees.

As a self-confident and ambitious young entrepreneur, he aspired to greater things in the production of sausage products. At the 5th Swiss Meat Products Competition MEFA in 1976, his "Bureschüblig" were awarded the GOLD medal.

 

In 1977, the opportunity arose to acquire the Werner Scherrer butcher's shop. The company accepted this offer and moved to the much more spacious premises at Friesstrasse 44 in Zurich-Seebach. From this point onwards, the family business grew steadily from a small to a flexible and efficient medium-sized business in the wholesale trade.

Our long-standing customers include numerous butchers, canteens and restaurants beyond the borders of the canton.

 For years, the owner bought directly from farmers in the region. We can therefore assure you from our own experience: all animals come from species-appropriate husbandry. Livestock dealers are committed to the professional and careful handling of the animals during loading and transportation. All livestock is slaughtered professionally at the Zurich abattoir.

We, as well as our suppliers, guarantee to offer our customers a natural product of the highest quality and hygiene.
