Since 2015

About Barmeister

"Once upon a time, there were two nerds with a pile of computers in a garage, bursting with ideas and talent, but only three euros to their name…"

STOP — that famous success story belongs to someone else. But the beginning, the motivation and the parallels are quite similar at BARMEISTER. In 2015, we were right in the middle of our studies and, like so many fellow students, constantly battling the same problem: not enough cash. So we holed up in my parents' basement (completely took it over) and let our ideas and creativity run wild.

...spending time together with friends

From idea to concept

We thought about what brings people the most joy and enriches quality of life, and the answer was always the same: spending time together with friends, enjoying a cosy get-together or a lively party, or savouring a bit of romance for two over a delicious long drink

All these special moments are best celebrated—or simply enhanced—with a cool drink, an exotic cocktail or a spicy liqueur. That was the first pillar of BARMEISTER. Then came the question that always followed: "How much should the fun cost?" Because for us, it was important that good spirits, top brands and popular labels should be available for every taste and every standard, but above all, for every budget. That's why, ever since BARMEISTER was founded, we've made it our goal to keep prices low and undercut many other providers and competitors.

Our Story

From cellar to warehouse

The Beginning

We were right in the middle of our studies and, like many other fellow students, we were always battling the same problem: too little cash. So we moved into my parents' cellar (completely took it over) and gave our ideas and creativity free rein.

Our first real warehouse

After we had completely overfilled the cellar with stock, 2020 saw the addition of our first 100 sqm warehouse. We roped in the whole family and friends, and everyone pitched in and lent a hand — and that's when things really took off.

Back in stock again

Just a few months later, we had to move again, and we have since expanded to 1,500 sqm. Our team is growing, and we have fantastic employees and colleagues who understand our idea and share our passion.

Today

Our range is growing fast. Alongside spirits and glasses (approx. 500,000 in stock) we’ve also kept the fun factor in mind and added many new items to our range, such as promotional items, bar accessories, illuminated signs and original decorations. We currently have approx. 8,000 different items in stock.
