Textile Solutions Group (TSG), a global software and technology group empowering the textile, apparel, and fashion industry through purpose-built digital solutions, is pleased to share Anton Hofmeier has joined the Textile Solutions Group (TSG) as Group CEO, effective 1 September 2025. His appointment strengthens Group-level coordination and aligns strategy from ERP and CAD to MES and shop-floor automation, so textile manufacturers achieve faster, lower-risk improvements in processing cost, delivery reliability, and sustainability.

Anton Hofmeier is an enterprise-software executive with 20+ years of experience in revenue growth, market expansion and M&A integration. With electronic-engineering roots and recent global supply-chain leadership, he brings an operations-first mindset that matches mill reality: complex flows, short lead times and last-minute reorders, right-first-time pressure, and the need to make quick decisions on reliable, connected data - without losing the strengths of each specialist company.

This comes at a time when mills face higher energy and material costs, stricter ESG requirements and global uncertainty, while many machines and supply systems still depend on manual handoffs or disconnected systems. Under Anton’s leadership, TSG’s goal is practical: shorter order-to-ship cycles, higher right-first-time, lower kWh per lot, and audit-ready traceability, enabled by a connected stack spanning product design, planning & sourcing, production & maintenance, quality controls and shipment.

From CAD and ERP to MES and production automation, TSG connects every stage of textile manufacturing with integrated technology, measurable results, and expert support. With over 350 employees and customers in 40+ countries, TSG is backed by private equity investor Elvaston with offices in all key markets.
