“This award recognizes the strength of our organization in all its diversity, from strategic alignment to operational excellence. With particularly great pride, I recognize the high level of commitment and sense of responsibility with which our teams contribute to our shared success every day. I therefore also view this award as recognition of precisely this highly motivated dedication.” said Peter Müller, Chief Financial Officer at RECARO Aircraft Seating and RECARO Holding.
“We are very proud to once again be among the best-managed companies in Germany. This award confirms the strength of our values, our team spirit, and the consistent execution of our strategic goals.
