LEUCO marked its 70th anniversary with a memorable employee celebration in Horb am Neckar, combining the inauguration of its new building with a heartfelt farewell to outgoing CEO, Frank Diez. The event, which took place in a relaxed and joyful atmosphere, provided a unique opportunity for employees to come together and celebrate outside the daily work environment.
Set against the backdrop of the new building, the celebration featured a diverse program designed to appeal to all attendees. Along with a selection of delicious food and refreshing drinks, employees enjoyed various games and activities, fostering a sense of unity and fun. A standout moment of the day was a spirited performance by the LEUCO brass band, which added a special musical touch to the occasion.
The new Management Board, consisting of Daniel Schrenk, Frank Seifert, and Roland Günther, expressed their satisfaction with the high turnout and the enthusiastic reception from employees. “We’re committed to providing our employees not only with a modern and pleasant workplace but also with opportunities to strengthen interpersonal connections and team spirit,” the board members remarked. “This celebration comes at a perfect time, especially considering the challenges of the current economic climate.”
A key highlight of the anniversary was the unveiling of LEUCO’s new warehouse and logistics building. Equipped with cutting-edge digital and automated technology, the building represents a major leap forward for the company’s operational efficiency. In addition to the technical advancements, the new facility also includes a contemporary canteen designed to create a welcoming and comfortable space for employees to relax and meet.
The emotional centerpiece of the event was a speech from departing CEO Frank Diez, who took the audience on a journey through LEUCO’s 70-year history. Through engaging anecdotes and vivid storytelling, Diez brought to life the company’s key milestones and achievements, highlighting the progression of LEUCO over the decades. Quoting philosopher Odo Marquard’s phrase, “The future needs origin,” Diez emphasized the importance of the company’s roots as a foundation for future growth.
Reflecting on his years at the helm, Diez said, “It has always been fascinating for me to witness what can be achieved through good cooperation.” He concluded his speech with the motivational words, “In the right spirit, we can become even better together.” His heartfelt message was met with resounding applause from the audience.
At the close of the successful event, the new board members reiterated their commitment to preserving LEUCO’s strong corporate culture, with the employee get-together remaining a vital tradition for the company.
