The story of the Meinl family begins in 1824 when Julius Meinl I was born in Kraslice, which is in today’s Karlovy Vary Region. In 1862, he opened his first store in Vienna where he innovated the roasting of coffee.
Over time, the Meinl name became synonymous with gourmet foods and Julius Meinl was a guarantee of the highest quality and an excellent customer service.
Six generations later, in 2016, the Meinl family has applied the legacy of innovation, quality, and customer service pioneered by its founder to modern ideals and adapted it to new customer needs. This gave birth to the concept of residences offering exclusive services under THE JULIUS brand. Founded in 2016, Julius Meinl Living Plc owns these residences where it provides luxury accommodation.
The history of the Meinl family is a business saga of traders and investors who, with each commercial innovation, advanced customer comfort and set trends throughout Central Europe.
Today, the Meinl family is one of the most significant private investors in Central Europe. It always developed its business activities in the Czech lands, from the time of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy through the period of First Republic and after the fall of the Berlin Wall.
Around 1900, the Meinl family’s roasting company had stores in Brno, Ostrava, and Cheb. Before the outbreak of World War I, the family opened a chain of retail food stores based on the British example throughout the Austro-Hungarian Empire, laying the foundation for today’s model of retail sales and quickly earned a dominant position in the Czech lands.
The collapse of Austria-Hungary did not slow Meinl’s expansion. During the First Republic, the family operated more than 100 stores in Czechoslovakia and The strong presence of the Julius Meinl brand defined the urban retail segment in the country. Around 1938, Julius Meinl family had about a quarter of its retail business in Czechoslovakia (118 of 572 stores), serving there about 6.4 million customers.
After 1989, Julius Meinl V., a respected businessman, banker, and philanthropist, returned to Czechoslovakia with the Julius Meinl supermarket chain and the Droxi chain of drug stores, continuing the Meinl family story in its homeland, interrupted by the previous regime. After a few years, the family decided to concentrate on what it did best: gourmet foods and premium services at affordable prices.
The family continues to have several businesses in the Czech Republic, such as The Julius Prague, House of Julius Meinl Gourmet, and other investments. And coffee remains the Meinl family’s most visible product in the country.
The Julius Fund will benefit from Julius Meinl Living Plc’s investment strategy by investing its liquid assets (minus an appropriate reserve) in the purchase of its securities.
