A Look into the Gründl Team

At our company, young and old work together, people from different backgrounds and countries. This brings many perspectives, experiences, and working methods to the table — and that's precisely what makes us better at what we do.

The atmosphere here is personal and approachable. Every role counts, and every individual matters. When problems arise, we try to solve them pragmatically and without drama. Our doors are open, and those who contribute their ideas are heard. We communicate clearly and respectfully with each other, even when there's friction.

What we all have in common is the desire to make a difference together. And last but not least: to put the finishing touches on things — that certain Gründl extra that surprises, remains in memory, and makes all the difference.

A Dustless Story

A lot has happened at Gründl in over 90 years. It all started in 1933, when Max Gründl founded the company in Ingolstadt. As a local supplier, we used to supply the "Tante-Emma-Läden" (mom-and-pop stores) in the region with a diverse range of products. At one point, we even ran a department store, before gradually specializing more and more in yarns for knitting and crocheting.

Trade means change. Markets shift, needs evolve, new generations bring new ideas. Those who stand still get left behind. We have always actively shaped change for ourselves, and we continue to do so. You could say: We are a startup that is over 90 years old.
