GEMÜ honoured as “Global Market Leader” for the fourth time in a row

The Ingelfingen-based valve specialist GEMÜ has been awarded the title of “Global Market Leader” for yet another year, earning the distinction for 2020 as part of the global market leader index of the University of St. Gallen and the Academy of German Global Market Leaders.
For the fourth time in succession, the German business magazine WirtschaftsWoche has awarded the owner-managed technology enterprise GEMÜ Gebrüder Müller Apparatebau GmbH & Co. KG the WirtschaftsWoche quality seal of “Global Market Leader”, declaring them a “Champion” of 2020. In doing so, WirtschaftsWoche has recognised GEMÜ’s inclusion in the global market leader index in the segment “Valves and automation components: Valves, Process and Control systems for sterile applications”.
The global market leader index is compiled under the scientific direction of Professor Dr. Christoph Müller of the HBM Unternehmerschule (school for entrepreneurs) at the University of St. Gallen, in cooperation with the Academy of German Global Market Leaders (ADWM). In doing so, objective selection criteria and transparent selection processes are developed to determine the actual global market leaders. The information acquired is then scientifically evaluated and the results are published in a condensed form.
The researchers designate companies as “Global Market Leader Champions” if they are first or second in the relevant market segment, are represented on at least three continents with their own production and/or sales companies, have an annual turnover of at least €50 million, and can demonstrate an export share or foreign share of at least 50% of their turnover. Another important criterion for a company to obtain the accolade of “Global Market Leader Champion” is to be (owner-)managed with headquarters in the German-speaking region (Germany, Austria or Switzerland).
