80 years of CREMER: Our story in pictures and milestones
In 1946, Peter Cremer laid the foundation for our company. What began with the trade of scarce goods such as grain, writing paper and steel sieves developed over the following decades into a globally connected group.
Since then, CREMER has continuously entered new markets, built new business areas and evolved along the way. Key milestones include our early expansion into Asia, the establishment of our own production sites, our growth in North and South America, and our move into business areas such as oleochemicals, steel, animal nutrition, and minerals & ores.

To mark our 80th anniversary, we have redesigned the history section on our website. A timeline takes you from our beginnings in Hanover (Germany) through key milestones in our international development right up to the present day.
The page also offers a look at CREMER today: Our world map shows how internationally connected the company has become and where our business units operate around the globe.
A story that continues
Our history is shaped by entrepreneurial courage, strong partnerships and personal relationships that have grown across generations and continents. Much has changed over the past 80 years. What has remained is our determination to recognize opportunities, take responsibility and keep finding new ways forward.
