In our case, that old conundrum about the chicken and the egg has a clear answer: The chickens came first on our farm in Germany’s Westmünsterland region. Although they didn’t realise it at the time, our predecessors also paved the way for our current business through their prudent yet proactive approach.
Gut Springenheide
In family hands since 1844
Gut Springenheide’s roots reach back to 1844, when the current owners’ forefathers laid the foundation for today’s globally active enterprise.

While all farms at the time had chickens, Gut Springenheide stood out by consistently pursuing innovation and growth in this business line in the 1950s. The company went as far as installing a modern egg packing station and proved even more forward-thinking in devising dedicated sales and marketing concepts for the branded eggs.
As we came to profoundly appreciate and ever more systematically focus on eggs as a valuable natural food source, we increasingly turned our attention to the many ways of preparing them. This undeniably delicate and challenging task became our great passion, spurring us on to new creative heights. We know we’re onto a winner when our carefully crafted products taste as good as if they had just been freshly prepared.
The Gut Springenheide farm still exists to this day. But we have long since moved into state-of-the-art, purpose-built premises. Today, every member of the team pours their expertise and enthusiasm into preparing our wide range of uniquely delicious and nutritious artisanal egg products. We are still guided by the self-same, tradition-steeped philosophy in our daily work.
From Münsterland to the world
From our home in Germany’s Münsterland region, we sell our artisanal products locally and to the world. Each day, our trained staff prepare fresh egg specialities according to traditional methods. Select ingredients, attention to detail, craftsmanship and creative ideas come together in our recipe for success.
Sustainability
We are serious about our responsibilities and are committed to meeting our long-term, sustainable goals. As a family company, we make it our business to ensure that every one of our products is made with social, ecological and economic considerations in mind.
At Gut Springenheide, food quality is our lodestar. That’s why we use only natural products and test all of our ingredients according to established specifications and quality standards. For the same reason, we get to know our suppliers well and set great store by strong, long-term relationships.
Above all, we never lose sight of how important it is to treat our employees and, of course, our customers with the consideration and respect they deserve. As you can see, we take a 360-degree view of sustainability that is not only mindful of our forefathers’ achievements but uses them as a touchstone to tackle today’s challenges. For us at Gut Springenheide, nurturing our local roots while reaching out and embracing other cultures are two sides of the same coin. It lets us forge and foster genuine partnerships.
