WÜRTH AND THE ELECTRICAL WHOLESALE SECTOR

Würth Group has been involved in electrical wholesale since 1996. The Künzelsau-based group of companies acquired a share in FEGA Elektro-Großhandels GmbH in 1996, which laid the foundation for its electrical wholesale activities in Germany. The W.EG. business unit was successively expanded in the following years through strategic acquisitions. Examples of this are the acquisition of German companies Schmitt Elektrogroßhandel GmbH, UNI ELEKTRO Fachgroßhandel GmbH & Co. KG, WALTER KLUXEN GmbH and LICHTZENTRALE Lichtgroßhandel GmbH and their integration into W.EG. at the turn of the millennium. These companies create synergies, benefit from common structures and optimise their processes under the common umbrella of Würth Elektrogroßhandel.
