The passion for cheese runs deep in the Rupp family. Since 1908, they have been dedicated to producing delicious, high-quality cheese — a tradition that continues with great devotion to this day.
It started with Emmental
Josef Rupp I. was one of the first to produce Swiss-style cheese in Austria. Today, the company supplies more than 60 countries.
„Our founder invested his first money in attending a Swiss dairy school. He always thought outside the box and this remains a cultivated characteristic of our company.“
