With Schubert Business Development GmbH, the Schubert brothers are opening a new chapter in strategic business development: While Gerhard Schubert GmbH is primarily known as a forerunner in modular packaging machines, the new company, which is independent from Schubert GmbH, aims to identify market trends and opportunities, and to promote and develop innovation for various industries. Furthermore, partnerships and equity investments with companies in the packaging sector will be pursued. Schubert Business Development is headed by shareholding partners Ralf and Gerald Schubert as well as Peter Gabriel, who will manage the newly founded company together with Gerald Schubert.

“We will develop new business models with existing partners in the packaging industry and explore entirely new approaches to diversify our current business in the packaging industry,” explains company founder Gerald Schubert. “Strategic collaborations with partners will be taken into consideration as well as investments in or acquisitions of start-up companies.”

According to Peter Gabriel, the approach is clearly “more than a think tank for modern production-oriented companies”. Schubert Business Development GmbH will support and promote start-ups – analytically, with ideas and financially as well. In doing so, it will not only support start-ups, but also promote investments in and the acquisition of existing companies.

The fact that successful entrepreneurship and pioneering spirit are part of the Schubert family’s DNA is reflected in the leadership role played by the machine manufacturer in the packaging industry, which also describes Gerald Schubert’s origins. Whether sustainable production processes in mechanical and plant engineering, digitalisation or innovative solutions in the field of automation – “in all these areas we see a need for experts who are not only deeply involved in the subject matter, but who can also promote creativity in the right place and correctly assess markets”. Furthermore, Schubert Business Development GmbH will facilitate collaborations that were previously not possible due to sector constraints. This is why company owners Gerald and Ralf Schubert not only talk about an exciting new challenge, but also about investing in the future, also for Gerhard Schubert GmbH. “Of course, we are also further expanding possibilities for diversification in the packaging field. There are still many opportunities here for investment in various segments of the packaging industry, in technology as well as in clever minds and engineering services.”

Anuga 2024: An extensive portfolio for food packaging

“Sustainable Growth” is the motto for the Anuga FoodTec 2024, which will be taking place in Cologne between 19 and 22 March. Gerhard Schubert GmbH will have its own stand at the leading trade fair for suppliers to the food and beverage industry. This year’s theme is a perfect match for the packaging specialist’s philosophy and Schubert is looking forward to showcasing its innovative, sustainable food packaging solutions at Stand C-071 in Hall 7.1.

A main highlight at the stand is the TLM Comfort Feeder – a new, efficient, resource-saving solution for feeding carton blanks directly from the pallet. The Schubert experts from Packaging Perspectives will also be introducing two ingenious, fully recyclable packaging concepts: Dotlock, a carton packaging without glue, and a carton-monofilm hybrid solution, also without glue. As always, Schubert will be providing advice on its extensive portfolio for the automated and environmentally friendly packaging of food and beverages.
