Sauer Brands Repositions as Duke’s Mayo Company

Duke's Mayo Company
October 27, 2026

Sauer Brands, Inc., known for brands including Duke’s Mayonnaise and Mateo’s Gourmet Salsa, is now known as Duke’s Mayo Company. 

The company says its new name underscores its strategic focus on the condiments category, led by Duke’s Mayonnaise, and the accelerating growth of its portfolio. The identity update comes after the recent divestiture of its spice business. This resulted in a focused condiments business with a simplified operating footprint, along with a foodservice business.

The company says aligning the corporate name with Duke’s Mayonnaise gives it an identity rooted in its most well-known and celebrated brand. As the company’s presence expands into more regions, retailers, restaurants and households, a single name tied to its signature brand gives audiences a clear way to understand who the company is and what it stands for.

“Duke’s Mayo Company is a name that says plainly what this company is about, which is a dedication to flavor and scaling high-growth condiments,” says Duke’s Mayo Company CEO E. Yuri Hermida. “Chefs, operators and families choose our brands for their exceptional taste and high-quality ingredients. Leading with Duke’s gives us a name that carries that reputation into every conversation, across every brand we make and every kitchen we serve.”

The company says its portfolio is accelerating toward double-digit growth, outpacing broader packaged food trends. Duke’s Mayonnaise and Mateo’s Gourmet Salsa each hold leading net promoter scores in their categories, a testament to consumer loyalty. 

“Our customers have welcomed our brands into their kitchens for generations,” Hermida says. “What changes is that our name now better reflects who we are: a flavor company, led by a brand that has earned its reputation, one jar at a time. The new name signals a focused strategy, an established portfolio and significant room to grow, all built on flavors consumers already love.”
