We don?t want to be the biggest. Just the fastest.

Here in Hamburg's Speicherstadt Gebr.
Heinemann was founded in 1879 as
a ship supplier. Today we are a modern,
Hanseatic trading house that provides
the international travel market with
professional solutions - as a distributor,

Gunnar Heinemann. They share the
duties and responsibilities of managing
the company with four further members. Kay Spanger (Purchasing, Logistics), Raoul Spanger (Retail Trade, HR) as well as Stephan Ernst (Finance, IT) and Peter Irion (Distribution).

The Gebr. Heinemann Group has more
than 5,500 employees for whose well-being the owners of the company are personally responsible.
