The company has been in the family’s ownership since 1883. From 1883 to 1967 it was operated as a cotton spinning mill.

Because of its continuous development, Fessmann & Hecker – under the management of Dr Thilo Fessmann – is now acknowledged as occupying a significant position among the major specialist providers of branded goods involving gas, petrol and oil for smokers’ requisites, around the house, and for hobbies.
