1 The Company Henry Lamotte Food GmbH Foodstuffs for Industry and Trade

2 Our background Henry Lamotte, a merchant from Bremen, founded Henry Lamotte Import/ Export in 1925 and initially concentrated on trading in fish oils. Henry Lamotte, the company founder The first company head office in Kornstraße in Bremen Hans Henry Lamotte, the founder s son, took over the company in The post-war years in Germany provided the right conditions for expansion and he laid the foundations for the company to become what it is today, an important player in the market place. Shortly after taking over the company, he expanded the product range by adding vegetable oils; this was then followed by the introduction of the first plant-based foodstuffs. The current management team of the group includes the founder s grandsons Otto and Henry Lamotte and his great-grandson Hermann Bosse. They take great pride in continuing to uphold the Hanseatic principles laid down by their forefathers: hard work, dependability, conscientiousness and a sense of responsibility, cosmopolitanism and identifying with the company s roots are still the key values of the Henry Lamotte Group and underpin its success.
