Alexander von der Nahmer was definitely in the right place at the right time. In 1885 he founded Alexanderwerk as a foundry - soon after this he landed the massive coup. On his travels he discovered a manual meat mincer from the United States. Happy with this product he decided - after getting clarity as to the legal issues - to produce and sell this in his own factory in Germany. With this, the first product of the Alexanderwerke was born for the food processing industry within the national market. (Source Alexanderwerk)
