"In the last years we were confronted with many challenges: extreme changes in the world markets, many regulatory restrictions, the pandemic and its side effects, interruptions in the supply chains and last but not least the change to a resource-efficient production. Despite all these challenges, we have continued to drive the development of new products and services and have positioned ourselves well for the challenges of the future in the areas of digitalization and sustainability. This award confirms the great achievement of our entire team, who work together with us day after day to ensure the sustainable success of the company."

The awards are presented in the categories "Family Business," "Innovation," "Sustainability" and "Young Companies." One of the winners will represent Germany at the EY World Entrepreneur Of The Year 2022 in Monaco.
