MARTINA KLEINSCHROTH:

“So, I have been working for Würth for 22 years now. My first job was at the sorting facility on a part-time contract.”

NORBERT BETZ:

“I’ve been here for 11 years. Back then, I was looking for something to give me a bit of job security. Würth seemed to be exactly what I was looking for.”

MARTINA KLEINSCHROTH:

“The thing I like most is that the company is a family business. It’s something that really comes across, with the Würth family attending a lot of our celebrations, for example.”

NORBERT BETZ:

“Yes, I like that, too. And I like the fact that the company never stops being innovative. It was 2015 when I first heard about the new

Distribution Center West.”

MARTINA KLEINSCHROTH:

“It’s really state of the art. Back then, it was the only distribution center of its kind in the whole of Europe”.

NORBERT BETZ:

“I was really interested when I heard that the center was to use the very latest technology. So I put my application in right away.”

MARTINA KLEINSCHROTH:

“We both ended up on the same shift. Before then, we had only ever seen each other in passing.”

NORBERT BETZ:

“I obviously really enjoyed the work. But especially at the end of my shift, when I could meet Martina for a coffee...”

MARTINA KLEINSCHROTH:

“We hit it off really quickly!”

NORBERT BETZ:

“If you’d asked me before, I’d never have imagined that I’d be working the same shift as my partner. But I’m loving it.”

MARTINA KLEINSCHROTH:

“Yes, and now we can have both: a state-of-the-art workplace and a partner for life at the same time!”
