About |
Penn Herb Company, Ltd. was founded in 1924 by Konstanty Kalkosinski, a respected naturopathic physician, who cultivated and dried medicinal herbs for use in his private practice. He carefully blended these herbs into special formulas to fit the specific needs of his patients.
From these humble beginnings, our line has expanded to include over 7000 items, including the Doctor’s special herbal formulas. Also featured are: dried and encapsulated single herbs, herbal extracts, essential oils, vitamins, and many other natural remedies from around the world. Penn Herb Company is proud to be the exclusive US importer for Olbas Herbal Remedies from Switzerland, which provide natural relief for colds, allergies, coughs, aches and pains.
Since 1962, Penn Herb Company has been privately owned and operated by the Betz family. William Betz, Jr. and Ronald Betz are the current owners, and are active on a daily basis at our company headquarters and 46,000 sq. ft. manufacturing facility in Northeast Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
It continues to be our goal to provide the finest selection of natural remedies available - along with the finest quality. Our products are displayed at our retail store in the historic Northern Liberties section of Philadelphia, as well as through our mail order catalog, by telephone at (800) 523-9971, and online at www.PennHerb.com.
