FREIE WÄHLER NRW: "Mittelstand strengthen - and understand"
A recent visit highlighted the struggles of mid-sized businesses in today’s difficult economic climate. Ralf Krings, accompanied by a small group of Free Voters and local association members, toured a company run by Anne Furth. The meeting underscored the pressing challenges facing firms like hers—from rising costs to labour shortages and growing bureaucracy.
Anne Furth and her brother established their company with careful planning. Their success has made them proud, and Furth has no regrets about taking the entrepreneurial leap. She personally guided Krings through the business, offering a firsthand look at daily operations.
The visit came at a time when mid-sized enterprises, known as the *Mittelstand*, face severe pressures. Skyrocketing energy bills, soaring raw material prices, and capital tied up in long-term projects strain finances. Skilled worker shortages and expanding red tape add to the burden. Understanding these real-world effects is seen as key to finding workable solutions. Krings thanked Furth for her insights. He also pledged to continue supporting the *Mittelstand* as a reliable partner in addressing its challenges.
The tour organised by Oberlicht e. V. put a spotlight on the tangible difficulties businesses now confront. Krings’ commitment to collaboration aims to help firms like Furth’s navigate the current economic landscape. The discussion reinforced the need for targeted measures to restore stability and growth.
