The WMF corporate culture
We love diversity
Not only in our products, but also in our employees: We bring people together for precious moments, both professionally and privately – regardless of their background and religion.
From Baden-Württemberg to the rest of the world
Since our foundation in 1853, we have been headquartered in Geislingen (Steige) in Baden-Württemberg and are proud of our family environment. However, our local ties do not stand in the way of the company’s globalization, as demonstrated by our affiliation with the French Groupe SEB, which has a total of 30,000 employees worldwide.
