Insolvency in Braunschweig: FDBS Fleischer-Service is fighting for the future!
The news about the insolvency of FDBS Fleischer-dienst Braunschweig eG is currently causing a lot of discussion in the region. How News38 reported that the company, which has successfully supplied restaurateurs, butcher shops and retailers for over 100 years, filed for bankruptcy at the Braunschweig District Court. Despite this bitter decision, deliveries to customers continue without restriction and new orders are even still being accepted.
Around 100 of the company's employees can breathe a sigh of relief because their wages and salaries are secured until the end of the year. The board of directors and the provisional insolvency administrator Tobias Hartwig from the law firm Schultze & Braun inform the workforce at regular intervals about the current situation and the planned measures.
Background to the bankruptcy
The reasons for bankruptcy are complex. Consumer restraint, increased energy and material costs and changes in the market environment were identified as the main factors. The short-term cancellation of payment terms by a major industry partner was particularly serious, which placed additional strain on the company. The board of directors and the insolvency administrator are now planning to develop a comprehensive restructuring concept in order to reposition FDBS structurally and financially.
The company offers an impressive range of over 15,000 items, including fresh meat, sausage, cheese, salads, fruit and vegetables, but also packaging and cleaning products. With an annual turnover of more than 30 million euros, FDBS is one of the larger players in the industry.
The look into the future
The next steps are the focus of those responsible. In addition to securing operational business, attention is paid to developing new strategies in order to successfully master the challenges of the future. The hope for a quick stabilization and return to normality lives on.
