Values & responsibility

As a company with a history dating back to 1832, the Wiesbaden-based Henkell & Co. Group has an ongoing duty to strike a balance between tradition and modernity in an ever-changing international market.

One of the constant challenges facing the company is the need to maintain up-to-date brand management and to ensure the highest standards of quality in terms of the produc­tion of our products.

A group with subsidiaries in many European countries and two non-European countries requires standard values based on collective, responsible action that is implemented in all areas of the company. Only then will it be possible for us to achieve long-term commercial success and ensure that the company remains competitive.

This approach goes hand in hand with taking on responsibility: for example, for staff, by giving them job security and career prospects in a successful international family-based concern, or for the environment whose natural resources the company would like to pro­tect further by using environmentally friendly production processes as well as by promoting sustainable development. The Henkell & Co. Group also faces up to the particular social responsibility borne by producers of alcoholic beverages.

This brochure should provide staff with a guide to their daily work. It gives our customers, partners and friends information about what they can expect from the Henkell & Co. Group.
