Reinhold Würth: The Lord of the Screws

Timmerberg, Helge · 2 highlights

  1. “A beginning always follows an end. And every beginning presents an opportunity, a screw that helps us rebuild Hohenlohe. This was more or less Alma Würth's argument. All we needed were screws, more screws and more screws - nothing else, except perhaps a little courage, because what better time to step into a new independent entrepreneurial life than the days when nobody has anything and everyone is starting over?”

  2. “"Everyone needs screws", was Adolf Würth's business idea after the end of the war. "The whole world needs screws", said his son in the fifties.”
