38		−	Speyer & Grund is a Mainz maker of vinegar essence and acidulants, owner of the Surig brand.[^dewiki] Adolf Gregor Speyer and his partner Grund founded it in Frankfurt in 1863 as a natural-dye trader; it took over the marketing of a Mainz vinegar essence in 1877 and moved its head office to Mainz in 2004.[^dewiki] The GmbH & Co. KG (Mainz HRA 40427) was converted into Speyer & Grund GmbH (HRB 52961) on 21 June 2024, and its shareholder is Dayvital Management GmbH.[^nd-hra][^nd-hrb] The website's legal notice gives the current seat, register and VAT number.[^impressum]
	44	+	Speyer & Grund is a Mainz maker of vinegar essence, table vinegars and acidulants and the owner of the Surig brand.[^sg] Its house brands are Surig vinegar essence and citric acid, the Citrovin lemon and lime concentrates, Würzgut essence, the Feldmann Genuss aus Baden and Feldmann Manufaktur vinegars, the Acetosur acetic acids and the Hygreen vinegar cleaners.[^sg-marken] Beside the Mainz head office it runs a bottling plant in Meerane, Saxony, and the Feldmann fermentation and filling works in Karlsruhe, supplies acetic acid and acidulants to the food industry and fills own-label vinegar for Edeka, Rewe and Aldi; it is family-owned, employs about one hundred people and its shareholder is Dayvital Management GmbH.[^pm160][^nd-hrb]

40		−	The GS1 prefix 4003387 is recorded here as derived: Surig barcodes 4003387003011 and 4003387001062 share it, and Speyer & Grund owns the brand; no public source names the GS1 licensee.[^off][^off-zs]
	46	+	The Frankfurt merchants Adolf Gregor Speyer and his partner Grund founded the house as a natural-dye trader on 15 June 1863; it took over the marketing of the Mainz-Mombach vinegar essence in 1877, branded the essence Surig in 1973, was re-privatised by Johannes Kaluza and Manfred Backes in 2001 and moved its head office back to Mainz in 2004.[^pm160][^dewiki] In the register the entity runs from Speyer u. Grund GmbH (Mainz HRB 8770, registered 25 July 2005) through Speyer & Grund GmbH & Co. KG (HRA 40427, 22 June 2007) to today's Speyer & Grund GmbH (HRB 52961, 21 June 2024); the legal notice gives the current seat, register and VAT number.[^nd-hra][^nd-hrb][^impressum] GS1 prefix 4003387 stays inferred rather than sourced: every Open Food Facts record under it carries a house brand or customer brand of this company (Surig, Acetosur, Citrovin, and the Gut Bio lime and lemon bottles filled for Aldi), and the sister company Würzgut Feinkost licenses its own prefixes (4017881, 4003894), so the block follows the Mainz operating company rather than the group.[^off-prefix][^off-wg][^sg-marken] No source naming the licensee was found on 14 September 2026: the company's site, its legal notice and the Wikipedia article state no GS1 number, Wikidata holds no item carrying the prefix, the listex GS1 data pool has no record of these barcodes, and web searches for the prefix with "GLN", "ILN" and "Basisnummer" returned only general GS1 explainers; Verified by GS1 and GEPIR publish no machine-readable licensee data.[^sg][^impressum][^dewiki]
