Generational change at ritterwerk

After more than two decades at the helm of ritterwerk, Michael Schüller will hand over management of the long-established Bavarian company to the next generation on 1 January 2026. His sons, Lorin and Moritz Schüller, will jointly take over the management of the company in future. However, Michael Schüller will remain closely associated with ritterwerk as a shareholder and advisor.

Michael Schüller, who has been at the helm of the company since 2005, has had a decisive influence on ritterwerk's strategic realignment and innovative strength during his tenure. Under his leadership, the product range has been expanded, new markets have been tapped and ritterwerk has been positioned worldwide as a specialist for universal cutters and small built-in appliances.

With this change, ritterwerk is sending a strong signal for continuity, sustainability and future-oriented family management. The company's philosophy of combining uncompromising quality and timeless design with German precision will remain the foundation of its success in the future.
