A history of success made by Woco
Woco was founded by Franz Josef Wolf in 1959. Hans Jürgen Kracht succeded the founding father in the beginning of August 2010 and he has been responsible for the Woco Group as CEO of the company ever since. Hans Jürgen Kracht has more than twenty years of experience in the automobile industry.

Since the beginning of March 2011, Bernhard Nagl has been supporting him as acting CFO and as a member of the executive board. He also brings more than 20 years of expertise to the table, gained from holding various positions in the electronics and automotive industry.

As a family enterprise with its main offices in Bad Soden-Salmünster, Germany, Woco achieved 383 million euros in revenues in 2010 with 2750 employees, several plants, production sites and business partners in Europe, NAFTA and Asia.

Innovative Primary Developer and Component Manufacturer

Fifty years ago as Woco was established, its business involved only rubber and plastics as materials. Today, this know-how in materials is still an important cornerstone of the company. Yet things changed quickly in the area of molded parts. The higher standards demanded by our customers progressively evolved along with our activities. There was thus a shift from Woco as a parts manufacturer to Woco as an innovative partner providing intelligent solutions. The range of services offered today covers the entire process chain, from the original idea all the way to series production.
