Ziehl-Abegg: pandemic poses major challenge for employees

“The year 2020 was like a rollercoaster ride: alternating suddenly and rapidly between border closures, material supplies being cut off, falling sales and rising order books,” says Peter Fenkl. He is CEO of the global electric motor and fan manufacturer Ziehl-Abegg. The company located in Southern Germany generated sales of EUR 639 million in 2020 (previous year: EUR 633 million); that’s an increase of around 1 percent. In the current year, the performance to date suggests the company will post a good increase in sales.
