HISTORY
The secret of the Bünting Group's success? Business acumen plus a philosophy of dynamic development that have steadily driven Bünting forward.
Traditions, values and virtues are nurtured at Bünting – and yet here we are always open to what the future might brings and what people need. This means that the company is always able to open up new business fields and launch new developments. For over 200 years, progress and growth have been happening in Brunnenstrasse, Leer (North Germany), in harmony with the region. Or as the company's founder Johann Bünting, said: "If you want to win, take a risk for the future“.
From a colonial goods store in Leer to a trading group active throughout Germany – learn more about the history of the Bünting Group.
Values
The success of the Bünting Group is based on the values and virtues of its North German homeland: reliability, continuity and responsibility.
The foundation for a healthy, well functioning company is a commitment to shared values. They reflect the company's relationships with its workforce, its customers and its business partners. We have defined these clear values and anchors for the Bünting Group and committed ourselves to aligning our company by these.
We developed our "Values and Anchors" in consultation with our workforce. Firstly, they are the direct result of our history and secondly, they pick up on a number of fundamental social requirements. This creates a clear guideline for all our actions.
- Independence: We make decisions on our own responsibility
- Stability and history: Our actions are reliable and rooted in the region
- Humanity and consistently fair treatment of each other: We appreciate, respect and help each other
- Securing the future and promoting development:We think ahead
- Responsibility: We pay attention
- Family firm: We operate on a secure footing
