Hohner was founded in 1857, and since 1909 has been a joint-stock company, which was then a new and innovative type of company status. 50 years after the founding of the company, Hohner realised the need for a new business structure, and on June 22nd 1909, the Matthias Hohner company was transformed into a joint-stock company, and financially based in the commercial district of the Oberamt Spaichingen. Today, a majority of the shares are in the HS Investment Group Inc., British Virgin Islands. Matt. Hohner AG is a holding company, with five subsidiary companies. These are the two German companies: the Hohner Musikinstrumente GmbH & Co. KG in Trossingen and Sonor GmbH & Co. KG in Bad Berleburg, which develop, produce and market worldwide the products of Hohner and Sonor brands. In addition, three sales offices belong to the company, Hohner, Inc. in the U.S., the Hohner SA, in France, and Hohner-Sonor AG in Switzerland. The portfolio is complemented by the participation in the Hohner Conservatory in Trossingen and Hohner Lansheng, Ltd. in Shanghai. Photos Trossingen 100 years. |
