Liebherr Nigeria Ltd

The Liebherr family business was established in 1949 by Hans Liebherr. The
great success of his first mobile, easy-to-assemble and affordable tower crane
was the foundation on which the company flourished. Today Liebherr is not only
one of the world’s leading manufacturers of construction machinery but is also
an acknowledged supplier of technically innovative user-oriented products and
services in numerous other fields. The company has now grown into a Group with
more than 35,000 employees in more than 130 companies across all continents.

The decentrally organized Liebherr Group is divided into company units of
manageable size, operating independently. This is to ensure proximity to the
customer and the ability to respond flexibly to market signals in global
competition. Operative management of the production and sales companies for the
individual product segments is in the hands of divisional control companies. The
Group now encompasses ten product divisions. The Liebherr Group’s holding
company is Liebherr-International AG in Bulle, Switzerland, which is entirely
owned by members of the Liebherr family. The family business is currently being
managed in the second generation by Dr. h.c. Isolde Liebherr and her brother Dr.
h.c. Willi Liebherr. Sophie Albrecht, Jan Liebherr, Patricia Rüf and Stéfanie
Wohlfarth have been actively involved in the management of individual divisions
as representatives of the third generation since 2012 in order to help set the
company’s course for the future.
