With 41,000 employees in more than 30 countries, the company achieved a total turnover of 12.6 billion euros. Compared to the previous year, turnover was increased by 1.1 billion euros.
The entire RETHMANN Group generated a total of 24.7 billion euros in 2022 with 90,000 employees – compared to 21.8 billion euros in the previous year.
REMONDIS is therefore confirming a trend which the German “Institut für Mittelstandsforschung” (Institute for Research into Small and Medium-Sized Businesses) had highlighted at the beginning of 2023 and which had been the subject of several publications (Die NEWS, Manager Magazin, etc.). Owner-managed companies are largely growing against the trend and create new jobs even in times of crisis. This was clearly shown in a comparison of the 500 largest German family businesses with the German share index (Dax) in the period 2011 to 2020. While the 26 non-family-controlled groups in the Dax 30 reduced employment in the first Corona year, the 500 largest German family businesses continued to hire.
