After more than a year of the pandemic, the Militzer & Münch Group looks back on 2020 with an overall sense of satisfaction. The results of the individual regions vary – but one thing is certain: The employees are committed to creatively mastering the small and big challenges, and to always having an open ear for their customers.

The Militzer & Münch Group’s 2020 business year was, on the whole, satisfactory. “The term ‘mixed fortunes’ sums up the past year quite well,” says Alexei Kovalenko, CFO and spokesman of the Militzer & Münch Group Management. Positive business development was noted in Western Europe, particularly in France and Germany, as well as in the Maghreb.

“These past months have confirmed once again that employees are our most important asset,” says Alexei Kovalenko. “In many cases, the local management did a good job of communicating the temporary and necessary measures, such as short-time work, and the teams went along with them.”

Signs of growth were visible in several regions: the Malaysia delegation became a full country unit; Militzer & Münch France acquired the LPS Group companies to strengthen Maghreb business; a new branch office opened in Vienna; and the Serbia joint venture acquired its rented property with 10,000 square meters of warehousing and 3,000 square meters of office space in Dobanovci near Belgrade.

The creativity of employees in approaching customers showed that even in difficult times they are motivated to go the extra mile. Digital meetings across national borders and time zones proved that intensive and efficient exchange is also possible remotely.
