In 2022, the Bender Group achieved a turnover of over € 250 million for the first time in the company’s history. Compared to the previous year, turnover has increased by more than 20 percent. The family-owned company based in Grünberg/Hesse offers products and solutions for electrical safety worldwide.
The main driver for the strong growth is electromobility. Among other things, Bender manufactures charge controllers for wallboxes and charging stations. Growth of 37 percent was achieved in this area. But Bender also reports good figures in the industrial and hospital sectors. In the industrial sector, the increase was about 25 percent, while for the hospital sector an increase of just under 15 percent was achieved.
Monika Schuster, member of the Bender Management Board: “We are pleased to be able to show such a result in such a difficult year as 2022. Supply bottlenecks and allocation are challenges that we have successfully overcome. Bender is optimistic about the future. Electricity is everywhere and is playing an ever greater role. We therefore see ourselves not only as a provider of products and solutions for a fail-safe power supply, but also as a guide for the future of energy.”
The Bender Group is represented at 15 locations worldwide. The family-owned company was founded in 1946 and today has around 1,300 employees. A further leap in growth is planned for the coming year. In addition, around 400 new employees are to be hired, most of them in Germany.
