Who is the founder of Maggi noodles?

Julius Michael Johannes Maggi (9 October 1846 – 19 October 1912) was a Swiss entrepreneur, inventor of precooked soups and Maggi sauce. He is best known for founding Maggi, which was merged with Nestle in 1947.

Maggi is an international brand of seasonings, instant soups, and noodles.

In the early 1880s, Julius began experimenting to invent a new type of flour. In 1882, he finally began selling flour and founded Maggi. In 1886, he launched Maggi seasoning.

In 1886, Julius invented the first instant soup in the world. It was invented in his Kemptthal factory.

By 1888, he began selling to countries all around Europe, including Germany, France, and Italy.

Julius Maggi was determined that his products should remain affordable. He would no doubt approve of the way they are packaged in Africa, Asia and Latin America today - in small, accessible individual sizes.

Mr. Maggi’s creative spirit also lives on in the brand’s Cooking Lesson Programme currently running in 30 countries. Consumers are encouraged to use Maggi products to increase the vegetables and wholegrains in their daily diets.
