Merano Speck – the company

The foundation stone for the Merano Speck factory was laid in Naturns in 1989. During a hiking holiday in South Tyrol, the Rauch family from Essen fell in love with the tradition and the ham there. hey were particularly impressed by the location, at the meeting point between the Alpine region and the Mediterranean climate. This is how the idea came about to produce their own original South Tyrolean ham at the heart of this idyllic setting.

Tradition-conscious

 

The goal of the Rauch family: A product that is both smoked and air-dried. The idea gave rise to the delicious Original Merano Speck, which captures the typical South Tyrolean attitude to life. With its individual blend of herbs, the ham has become a South Tyrolean speciality. Since then, ham and other typical South Tyrolean specialities have been produced in Naturns according to a traditional recipe.

Innovative with an eye on the future

 

Despite its tradition, Merano Speck is positioned for the future. Photovoltaic systems and our own water management contribute to sustainable production. Furthermore, 60 per cent of the plastic used for packaging is replaced by renewable wood.
