01

The role

What they make

The oldest brewing equipment manufacturer in the world, founded in Bamberg in 1677 by Christian Schulz — a coppersmith who had just married the widow of his late master, and who forged kettles for the brewers of the Prince-Bishopric of Bamberg. Still owned and run by the family in its tenth generation, still building in Bamberg, and now supplying brewing, malting and distilling plant in more than seventy countries.

Tally's take

Why it matters

Building brewhouses since 1677, which makes them older than most of the countries their equipment ships to.
