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.[2][3]

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.[4][5]
