Who are we?
Importhaus Wilms is Germany’s most successful marketer and distributor in the food sector. We are part of the Zertus Group based in Germany and the UK. With its 2000 employees, the Zertus Group produces and markets high-quality food and beverages, including its own brands such as BioZentrale and Dextro Energy.
For over seventy years, we have been successfully, innovatively, and passionately connecting (food) brands and retail from our locations in Walluf, Alzey, and Dachau. Clear added value on both the manufacturer and retailer side is always at the centre of our services. In specific terms, this means we take care of all the sales, logistics, and marketing tasks involved in the complex marketing process – making us a total solution provider.
Every day, we do our best to bring great and often market-leading brands to consumers' tables together with the trade. In doing so, we are helped not only by a close cooperation with our brand partners, the various retailers and companies, which has grown in trust over many years, but also by creativity, appreciation for the product and a keen sense of the trends in the market.
Kathrin Schreiber - Managing DirectorClose to the market, new ways into marketing
Thanks to our dense distribution network with over 100 employees, our high-performance logistics centre, and our extensive marketing expertise, we are very close to the market and to consumers. Our routes are short, we are fast and flexible. And that’s how we respond to the individual needs of our partners, from start-ups to multinationals. We are partnership-based, sincere, and human in our relationships, both internally and externally. We have been serving many of our brands for decades.
Our products regularly win industry awards in many categories and are usually market leaders. This is all thanks to our highly sustainable brand and customer care, new and creative ways of marketing, and our extremely committed employees.
