Jobs at Pahmeyer

Our philosophy

For over 30 years, (almost) everything has revolved around the potato. Our aim is to become more sustainable step by step, taking a holistic approach from the origin in the field to the end customer, taking into account environmental, social and economic factors, in order to secure and further strengthen the independence of our family business in the long term.

A passionate family business

We are a family business and see ourselves as such, even though our family now has almost 200 employees. Together, we work hand in hand to always serve our customers the best potato specialties with love and passion.

Our brand

The Pahmeyer brand stands for fresh potato products from the farm, which are produced regionally in Werther (East Westphalia). Our quick-to-prepare products offer enjoyment in fresh quality and give you the gift of time.

We use natural ingredients and avoid artificial additives, flavorings and preservatives. Honest and transparent brand statements guarantee high-quality potato specialties without unjustified expectations.

Pahmeyer promotes sustainable business management and emphasizes the distinctiveness of the brand. We offer high-quality, sustainable, potato specialties for all age groups and serve market trends and consumer wishes through regular new product developments.

Quality products from local quality potatoes

We produce high-quality potato specialties. We want our products to be as fresh and delicious as if they were home-made. For us, taste and quality go hand in hand, because good taste requires consistently high quality raw materials.

Locally grown potatoes: Around 3/4 (depending on the harvest) of the potatoes we process here are grown by our team of farmers themselves and are tended and cared for with passion until they are harvested. We buy the remaining potatoes from neighboring partner farms, which are located in the immediate vicinity of our company and production site.

Regional responsibility

In addition to the regionally grown potatoes, our procurement is characterized by many regional suppliers, which we prefer to more distant ones if they are equally suitable.

We also support regional associations and initiatives and are always open to cooperation with local educational institutions.

Our environment

As a company with a direct link to agriculture , preserving the environment and thus the basis of life for all of us is important to us.

Our holistic concept systematically records and minimizes negative environmental impacts from the field to the plate. We promote positive environmental impacts through targeted measures.

Our circular economy utilizes side streams of production, conserves resources and avoids waste. We strive to increase the recyclability of all materials.

We promote an awareness of resource-conserving and environmentally conscious behavior among our employees.
