FAMILY-OWNED KUHN RIKON

The owner family sees it as its responsibility, but also as its privilege, to ensure fairness, security and trust in its sphere of influence in the long term. In addition to striving for economic success, this also includes a strong social commitment and ecological thinking.

These three elements form - even in the fourth generation and after more than 90 years of company history - the cornerstones of Kuhn Rikon. They are everyday life.

Dorothee Auwärter is the first female chairman of the board of directors. Together with her eldest brother and cousins, the fourth generation of the Kuhn and Auwärter families is now at the helm. 

The lawyer, Dorothee Auwärter, talks about childhood memories such as roller skating in factory halls, favorite products and her goals for the global company.
