Carl-August Seibel: Disaster event for all of us “

“I personally think we are still in the concentration process of trade. This can be seen in many numbers, ”said the HDSL chairman as part of a press conference in Düsseldorf on February 3. The Görtz company, which had again made an application for bankruptcy a few weeks ago, was a prominent example. “It is unspeakable when such things happen,” said Seibel, “a miserable light throws in our industry as a whole. A market is messed up here, any new concepts are presented and then you go into bankruptcy, are not tangible and did not pay any money at the end. This is an absolute disaster event for all of us. ”Because the industry has to consolidate, Seibel demanded that such players have to get out of the market, I say that very clip and clearly. They have to get out so that there is a clean, sensible offer again and we are inpatient with beautiful, attractive shops to convince customers – then we can also make business together again. ”
The market is still removed from this: “As things are still going on at the moment, it is bad, but we have to go through it”. If that is done, the entrepreneur is convinced for the industry.
