| THEMA | Beschreibung |
| TEXT | The business of the C. F. MUELLER COMPANY manufacturers of superior quality of egg noodles and the finest grades of macaroni and spaghetti, was originally started by C. F. Mueller, Sr. in 1867 at Newark, N. J., the output at that time being about 10 to 15 pounds per day which were delivered from house to house with a basket. There was no machinery used then, everything being made by hand. In 1880 the first horse and wagon was bought, it being found
impossible to cover the route as before with a basket and small hand cart. Each year was showing such a steady increase that it was found necessary to get larger manufacturing facilities, with the result that in 1890 it was decided to locate in Jersey City, this being more central, for New York and the surrounding towns were now beginning to get a demand for the goods. Finding the desired location, a plot 75 x 168 was purchased on Boyd Avenue on which was erected a two-story and basement factory. This has been enlarged from time to time until now on this plot stands the present plant employing 125 people, covering over one acre of ground, equipped with the largest and most modern machinery, turning out millions of pounds of macaroni and egg noodles a year, requiring seventeen horses for delivery. These goods can be found in nearly every large city in the Eastern States under the registered trade marks
Mueller's Flag Brand Macaroni and White Leghorn Egg Noodles. People are beginning to realize more and more the food value there is in domestic macaroni, knowing that it is dried in well ventilated rooms on trays, placed in racks
and covered when thoroughly cured, packed by clean American girls in air, dust and moisture-proof packages thus insuring cleanliness and purity. C. F. Mueller, Sr. no longer has to take an active part in the business, he leaving that to his three sons, each one being assigned to the position best adapted to him. |
