Company History: Sigmund Oppenheimer founded the firm of S. Oppenheimer & Company in 1868. Its first location was 2700 Wabash Avenue, Chicago. Its purposes was to profitably sell animal casings to sausage manufacturers. Sausage casings are derived from a variety of animals: sheep, cattle, hogs and goats. As expected, they come in a variety of diameters and lengths. Oppenheimer used aggressive business methods to create monoply-like operations in Australia, New Zealand and China. The success of these overseas operations and intense competition in the United States (where antitrust laws prevent similar business practices) eventually moved the core of Oppenheimer's operations to Australia.
Today Oppenheimer is a 100% Australian owned and managed private business. They also operate extensively in New Zealand.
