Since 2013, we have more than doubled our sales from 150 million euros to over 320 million euros.

Our values

Entrepreneurial

With us, each company is operationally independent. Our Group companies are managed by passionate entrepreneurs who know, love and live their business and take responsibility for it. This is why we emphasise bottom-line accountability with clear responsibilities, far-reaching decision-making powers and measurable success criteria.

100% meaningful & value-creating

We do not do business for a few individuals, but always for the many. All income generated by the Group serves the common good or strengthens the Group. We are committed to acting in an exemplary, responsible and ethical manner and to treating all our stakeholders with respect.

 

 

Future-proof

Our tradition means change. That's why we never rely on the familiar. We prefer to shape the future anew every day. We are on the side of innovation and sustainability, but we always think long-term and consciously act between the poles of profitability and investment in the future.

 

Diversity

We connect many markets, many companies and, above all, many different people. What unites us is the continuous growth of the Group - with shared values and goals for the future. We value and promote diversity as one of our greatest strengths. That is why we welcome everyone, regardless of origin, gender, age or other individual characteristics.
