Austria
Rupp AG, with the slogan "Rupp hat's beschte Eck vom Käs," is Austria’s largest dairy producer, established in 1908. The company offers spreadable cheese and natural cheese under its two brands, Rupp and Alma, and is active in the B2B sector, exporting more than 90% of its products to 65 countries worldwide. The main production facility, opened in 2008, is located in Hörbranz, Vorarlberg.
Rupp AG's rich history spans three generations, with founder Josef Rupp I starting the cheese-making tradition at the age of 13 and investing in his education in milk and dairy production. His son, Josef Rupp II, laid the foundations for the company's success in the 1950s, while the third generation now leads the global business. The acquisition of the Alma brand in 2008 expanded Rupp's offerings to include mountain cheese from Vorarlberg and its own dairies.
The company's philosophy revolves around producing quality cheese and nurturing its staff and partnerships. With a focus on "Das beschte Eck vom Käs" (the best corner of cheese), Rupp AG emphasizes the importance of its dedicated team and their continuous development. They strive to provide an environment where innovation, creativity, and responsibility are encouraged and valued.
