Mühle-Glashütte: investment for further growth

Even in the economic crisis, the family-run watch brand from Glashütte in Saxony experienced a clear sales growth in the first nine months of 2012. In the first nine months of 2012, For the coming years, Mühle-Glashütte is planning to expand its production capacities. With investments in in-house apprenticeships, additional skilled employees and technical equipment, major groundwork has been laid for further growth in the coming years in recent months.

Mill-Glashütte continued to grow in 2012 with a sales increase of around 10% in the first three quarters. "Of course, we are very pleased that our new collection has been so well received," says Thilo Mühle, Managing Director of Mühle-Glashütte. "Even if the market development is difficult to predict next year, this result encourages us to further expand our production capacities and the production depth in Glashütte". This year, important steps have already been taken. In the future, the Glashütter family business will increasingly rely on training in-house. In September, two trainees began their watchmaking apprenticeship in the production of Mühle-Glashütte. In addition, additional skilled workers and watchmakers were hired, increasing the number of employees to a total of 51.

In addition to the expansion of the personnel structure, the company also invested in technical equipment, such as an additional CNC production center. With these investments, we are increasingly focusing on expanding the production depth on site. "It is important for us to have even more 'mill' in our high-quality timepieces in the future and to contribute our experience of more than 140 years in instrument building," said Managing Director Thilo Mühle. How this will look in the future can already be seen at the manual hoist with the designation MU 9412, which celebrated 2011 premiere in the model Teutonia III hand hoist.

Nevertheless, Thilomühle is important to grow slowly: "Quality always precedes quantity. We have planned a series of exciting novelties for next year in the field of high-quality timepieces as well as in the field of sporty instruments. But only when the internal structures stand, we will also increase the production figures. In order to meet the increased demand on the international markets.
