== History == === Founding === Brenntag was founded on October 9, 1874, in Berlin by the Jewish merchant Philipp Mühsam (November 14, 1848 – May 17, 1914) under his own name. At first, the company Philipp Mühsam was an agricultural wholesale business, whose most successful product was eggs. In 1879, Philipp Mühsam entered the trade of pharmaceutical raw materials, the so-called ‘drugs.’ By 1881, according to the sources, the company was distributing chemicals, dyes, drugs and also agricultural products, though the latter only in small quantities. In November 1923, the founder’s son, Dr. Kurt Mühsam (December 31, 1887 – March 20, 1928), together with his business partner Julius Herz, converted the company into a joint stock corporation.
