THE BEST is yet to come.

100 years ago in Schwäbisch-Hall in Germany, Otto Bühler laid the foundation stone for a success story, the likes of which do not come along very often. A story that speaks of the determination to be permanently breaking new ground. Trailblazing developments and milestones and highly motivated employees, united by a single aspiration – in Latin, OPTIMA means the best.

100th anniversary celebration with Winfried Kretschmann

“Companies like Optima are beacons. They take on every challenge, reinvent themselves again and again, and still put their heart and soul into their work – and have done so for 100 years. In the transformation processes that are profoundly shaping our economy, in digitalization and in the topic of sustainability, they have taken the reins of action and are thus strengthening Baden-Wuerttemberg as a location for innovative companies.”

 

Winfried Kretschmann, Minister-President of Baden-Wuerttemberg
