Franz and Gerlinde Schröder have handed over the Schröder Group, including the companies Hans Schröder Maschinenbau GmbH, SCHRÖDER-FASTI Technologie GmbH, SCHRÖDER-FASTI Scandinavia A/S, and SMU GmbH, to their daughter Sabrina and son-in-law Markus Hibler. This keeps the internationally successful group of companies in family ownership. Markus Hibler has been part of the management of Hans Schröder Maschinenbau since October 2020. Franz Schröder has increasingly withdrawn from operational business in recent years. He will remain connected to the management in an advisory capacity.
I am happy to have found a succession plan that continues the company founded by my father and my own life's work with great continuity. This means security for our teams and business partners as well as for our customers. The company handover was the formal conclusion of this positive development,” explains Franz Schröder. “I wish Sabrina and Markus all the best and continued success.”
Continuity for strong brands
Schröder and SCHRÖDER-FASTI stand for solid solutions, precision, and repeat accuracy in bending, cutting, edging, and rounding sheets, both in plumbing and in the sheet metal processing industry. “We have made a name for ourselves through precision and innovation – both in craft machines and in highly automated industrial solutions. The Schröder Group has always closely observed the challenges faced by sheet metal processing professionals and how we can make their daily work easier. Offering high-quality solutions for these challenges will continue to be our business model,” says Markus Hibler.
