History[]

The history of Paulig began in 1876, when German  [fi] established a new company in Helsinki. Paulig had arrived in Finland from Lübeck, Germany, in 1871.

Finland was undergoing big changes, which brought big opportunities in the business. Paulig imported salt, coffee, spices, flours, port wine and cognac.

During the first decades, Paulig's office was located in Helsinki.  [fi], Gustav's wife, took care of the company after Gustav died in 1907.

Gustav's and Bertha's son, Eduard Paulig, was the managing director of the company from 1919 to 1947. During the era of Eduard Paulig, the company developed into an important company in Finland.

In September 2016, Paulig acquired Gold & Green Foods to market meat alternative products.[1]

Since 2018, the CEO and Managing Director has been Rolf Ladau.
