Man: Good afternoon, everyone. Today, I want to talk about a famous German company, Henkel, which some of you may have heard of. Henkel was founded in 1876. In fiscal 2009, the company generated sales of 13,573 million euros and operating profit of 1,364 million euros. People around the world trust in Henkel’s brands and technologies. The Dax-30 company is headquartered in Duesseldorf, Germany, and ranked among the Fortune Global 500.
Henkel employs 50,000 people worldwide, 80 percent of which work outside of Germany. Henkel is thus one of the most internationally aligned German companies.
Henkel is organised into three globally operating business sectors. First, Laundry & Home Care has always played an important role for Henkel: the company’s success story started with a product from this business sector. Henkel operates in the laundry care and household cleaner segments. The laundry products comprise heavy-duty detergents and special detergents. In fiscal 2009, the Laundry & Home Care business sector generated sales of 4,129 million euros, which equals 30% of total company sales.
For consumers in more than 40 countries, Henkel’s brand names have become an integral part of their daily lives. In the relevant market, Henkel’s Laundry & Home Care business sector enjoys leading positions on a worldwide scale.
Henkel’s cosmetic division is one of the largest of its kind in the world and its brand-name products business is continuously expanding. Products from the Cosmetics / Toiletries business sector are available in 150 countries worldwide. Schwarzkopf & Henkel stands for brand-name products in the fields of hair colorants, hair styling, hair care and form, toiletries, skin care and oral hygiene. Schwarzkopf Professional is one of the world’s leading suppliers of hair salon products. In fiscal 2009, the business sector generated sales of 3,010 million euros, which equals 22% of total company sales.
The Adhesive Technologies business sector is the world market leader in adhesives, sealants and surface treatments for consumers, craftsmen and industrial applications. Henkel offers a multitude of applications to satisfy the needs of different target groups — consumers as well as craftsmen and industrial businesses. In fiscal 2009, the business sector generated sales of 6,224 million euros, which equals 46% of total company sales. It all began on June 22, 1923, when the very first delivery of adhesives left the Henkel facility in Diisseldorf, Germany. This historical milestone marked the birth of a business segment in which Henkel is now global market leader.
Henkel is a leader with brands and technologies that make people’s lives easier, better and more beautiful. 50,000 employees worldwide are dedicated to fulfilling Henkel’s corporate claim, "a Brand like a Friend," and ensuring that people around the world can trust in brands and technologies from Henkel.
