After completing his high school diploma as part of a long-distance learning program at Telekolleg, and then studying business management, he founded a creative agency where he focused his energies on marketing.

YOUR HOST

Schwarz Group

With about 550,000 employees in 32 different countries, the Schwarz Group is among the top retail companies in the world.

Based in Neckarsulm, Baden-Wuerttemberg, the two retail divisions Lidl and Kaufland form the pillars in the food retail market. Schwarz Produktion is also active in food manufacturing, and PreZero in environmental services.

This makes the Schwarz Group one of a few retail companies to cover the entire value cycle – from production and retail to disposal and recycling.

STACKIT as part of the Schwarz Group

STACKIT is the digital trademark for Schwarz IT and part of the IT organization of the Schwarz Group, one of the largest retail groups worldwide.

As a solid unit with a start-up character within Schwarz IT, STACKIT offers colocation in the form of data center or rack space as well as Cloud infrastructure and platform services (IaaS and PaaS) in enterprise quality.

STACKIT thus provides the technological basis for the digital transformation of the companies of Schwarz Group, from which external companies will also benefit.
