In 1899, "Johs. Eckart Konservenfabrik" (Johannes Eckart’s canning factory) was taken over by Johannes’ eldest son Friedrich Eckart (1870 to 1928) – alone at the beginning, later with his brother Otto (1877 to 1942). In the aftermath of World War I, they failed to put the company back on a successful track. Otto left the company in 1926 and later founded the company "Otto Eckart" which became the "Pfanni" factory after the end of World War II. In accordance with family tradition, it was then always the eldest son who took over the company: first Werner Eckart (1909 to 1997), then Otto Eckart (1936 to 2016) and today Werner Eckart (*1968).
