The name ‘Herta’ comes from the German town of Herten, where Ludwig Schweisforth opened his first butchers shop. By 1902 the local shop had became a factory. The Herta brand was created in 1947 and by 1963 had spread across Europe. The brand was acquired by Nestlé in 1986 and was subsequently launched into the UK market in 1988. By 2000, Herta was the number one brand for Frankfurters in the UK, with over 150 million being sold in this country alone.Today Herta retains that market position with a value share of 51% (IRI MAT, Dec 08)
