The company was founded on January 2nd, 1970 by
Rainer Lederer
and a business partner. It quickly established itself in the growing market for stainless steel fasteners and increased its number of employees from five initially to more than 200.
Dr Volker Lederer
, who is the second generation to lead the AEO-F certified company at its headquarters in Ennepetal, has done so since 2010.
The core area was the retail trade business for many years until the industrial sector was established and expanded as a new business area in the 1990s.
The Lederer range includes special parts by drawing, manufacturer-specific C-parts, packaging, labelling and assembly, as well as complex logistics and Kanban solutions (also RFID-based)
