Meyer-Hosen AG is a German family-owned company founded in 1960 with roots in the Bergisches Land area near Cologne, describing itself as Europe's leading specialist in men's trousers. Since the 1990s its production has been based at its own facility in Targu Secuiesc, in the Covasna region of Transylvania, Romania. Meyer has moved its cotton sourcing toward sustainability commitments: in 2020 it switched entirely to organic cotton, and trousers made with Fairtrade-certified cotton carry the Fairtrade Cotton Mark. The trade publication TextilWirtschaft named Meyer its 'Top Brand' for men's trousers in the sustainability category in 2021.
