Kornwestheim craftsmanship: Glaser Haustechnik in new hands!

Thomas and Ute Glaser hand over their craft business Glaser Hausechnik in Kornwestheim to Niyazi Sari and his wife Aldina. This step is followed by Thomas Glaser over 30 years of experience in the industry, which specializes in heat pumps, solar systems and bathrooms. In order to ensure a smooth transition, the handover was prepared early with the Chamber of Crafts. In the Stuttgart region, almost 8,000 companies are looking for a successor in the next five years.

Thomas Glaser wanted to save his employees the fate of closing the company. Niyazi Sari, who was previously an apprentice at Glaser, returned after his master training to take over the company. The Glasers and Saris work closely together to make the handover successfully. Thomas Glaser emphasizes the importance of a clear cut and that his successor should make his own decisions.

future of the craft

The company will continue to operate under the name Glaser Haustechnik, but is now completely in the hands of Niyazi Sari. Aldina Sari is trained in the bookkeeping by Ute Glaser. Thomas Glaser plans to concentrate on his hobbies in the future and to spend more time at home.

This handover is part of a larger trend, as reported. The operating succession ensures the continued existence of companies and enables the transition between generations. The Ulm Chamber of Crafts has been offering the Center for Operating Succession (Zen) since 2016 to support craft businesses in this important phase. The updated brochure for business donations and takeover provides comprehensive information and practical help for transfers and transfers.

essential topics are the legal foundations, economic aspects and emotional challenges. A central success factor is the exchange of knowledge between supervisors and companies, which is supported by open communication. This facilitates the transition process and helps to clearly define expectations and requirements. Early planning of the company succession is recommended to identify potential challenges in good time and to make the transition optimally.
