Family business through five generations
Family business through five generations
Owner-managed since 1896
The BWF Group has been family-led since 1896, demonstrating vision, responsibility and the courage to rethink tradition. From the first generation, which laid the foundations in Offingen, to today’s fifth-generation management, each has left its mark and further developed the company. Throughout, one thing has remained constant: the values on which it all began.
What sets us apart as an owner-managed family business?
- Long-term thinking rather than a focus on quarterly figures
- Personal responsibility rather than hiding behind anonymous corporate structures
- Genuine partnerships rather than purely transactional relationships
- Tradition as a strength rather than a burden
Today, the fifth generation is leading the BWF Group, with 1,750 employees across 15 production sites in 11 countries. Rooted in Bavaria. Leading worldwide.
