What is Hepp 90?
Only a few years after founding the company, Carl Hepp set a milestone in the history of exclusive gastronomy: his development of the silver plating process in 1871 laid the foundations for the company’s expansion. “Gebrüder Hepp 90” or “hotel silver” conquered the market and over time replaced products made of pure silver.
What is the history of Hepp?
HEPP established itself as a supplier to upmarket hotels around the world, but by the end of the 1920s, the flourishing business began to suffer the effects of the global economic crisis.
Is Hepp still in business?
Despite grave losses, production recommenced only two weeks later in leased premises. Since 2006, the HEPP brand has formed part of proHeq GmbH, a subsidiary of the WMF Group, and is one of the most successful brands in the Group. In 2013 this success brand celebrated its 150th anniversary.
