Management and Governance

We have a two-tier management structure: The Board of Directors and the Executive Board of the Franke Holding AG. The corporate strategy and goals are central responsibilities of the Board of Directors. Our Executive Board with the CEO on top is taking care of the daily operational management.


Our Board of Directors is responsible for the overall management. That includes defining the corporate strategy and goals as well as supervising and controlling the Executive Board. Its six members have various non-transferable, irrevocable duties in accordance with the Swiss Code of Obligations. The Board has three standing internal committees: a Finance and Audit Committee, an Information Technology and a Human Resources Committee.
