Leverkusen, 30.05.2023 - Steel processor Wuppermann has received the Best Managed Companies Award for the second time in a row. The award was presented to Kai Marwig, Head of Business Development and Communications at Wuppermann AG, by representatives of Deloitte Private, the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung and the Bundesverband der Deutschen Industrie e.V. on 25 May 2023 in Düsseldorf.

The Best Managed Companies programme is a competition and seal of approval for successful medium-sized companies. The vision: to build a national and global ecosystem of excellently managed medium-sized companies.
