Forch International
In 1963 Theo Förch founded a small business in Kochertürn, supplying fixings. With diligence, persistence and a keen sense for the needs of his customers he grew the company to a significant size.

In 1998, about 650 FÖRCH employees achieved a turn-over of more than 60 million Euros. This is a respectable result, but for FÖRCH it was no reason to sit back. With planned expansion, both nationally and internationally, another highly successful phase was initiated which enabled FÖRCH to open up entirely new markets.
Today the company ranks among the undisputed champions of the sector, turning over 220 million Euros, with 1,850 employees – including 1,150 sales representatives and 18 subsidiaries.
The first company headquarters: a barn at the parental premises at Kochertürn. It had been Forch's storage and office at the same time. And unfortunately it had not been heated. These had been difficult times for Theo Förch and his follow campaigners. They had to pinch pennies: they collected and reused the incoming packaging material. The vehicle fleet at the site of the company mainly consisted of the tractor belonging to his brother. Eventually Theo's primary products found buyers with the company staying in the black from day one.
Today Förch source and manufacture an incredible range of quality tools and consumables for the Automotive, Industrial and Construction trades. With an established foundation and renowned German efficiency you can trust anything Förch puts its name to.
