Change of management at Koenig Germany

New focus on customer benefits and innovation: The Board of Directors of the Helmut Koenig Private Foundation and the Management of the Koenig Group announce the following organizational changes in the company

Koenig Germany has developed very successfully under the management of Mr Josef Hefner. His current range of responsibilities extends far beyond Koenig Germany, which is why Mr Hefner will retire from the management of Koenig Germany on 1 March 2025.

To ensure a continuous handover, the management of Koenig Germany will be strengthened by
Mr Armin Kernler in the area of sales and Mr Dietmar Aichhorn in the area of service from 1 November 2024.

Armin Kernler has worked in international sales at Koenig Maschinen GmbH for many years. Dietmar Aichhorn has managed the customer service department worldwide for Koenig Maschinen GmbH for many years.

Both gentlemen have a wealth of experience in the industry and understand the needs and concerns of the customers. The management of the Koenig Group wishes them both every success in their new roles.

With this decision, the Koenig Group is placing a clear focus on optimizing customer benefits and further developing innovative technologies and solutions for the German market.

“With confidence in the decades of experience of Mr. Kernler and Mr. Aichhorn, we see ourselves strengthened in securing our existing market success in Germany for the future,” explains Hannes Stelzer, CEO of the König Group, this strategic decision.
