Hartz Tasmania

Hartz is an Australian mineral water and soft drink brand founded in Cambridge, Tasmania, Australia in 1969 by Ron Powell. Ron's son, Stephen, took over the business in 1980.

In April 2008, Hartz was placed into administration following financial issues with creditors claiming more than AUD$2 Million owed by the company. Later that year, Hartz was acquired by Juicy Isle, another beverage manufacturer from Tasmania.
