Strategic realignment at Oppold System International: RWP Holding is taking over the entire company in Oberkochen and intends to continue its more than 100-year tradition. Both managing directors are optimistic about the future prospects.

Following the appointment of Christian Schulz as managing director in 2024, the shareholder structure of the more than 100-year-old company was also permanently restructured in August.

“The company Oppold has been on the market for over 100 years, renowned for outstanding consulting, and its products are distinguished by quality and cost-effectiveness,” explains Maximilian Schmidt, managing director of RWP Holding, regarding the acquisition. Schmidt sees great potential in the Oberkochen-based company.

Christian Schulz, managing director of Oppold System International, also expressed his relief about the new ownership structure: “We can now once again focus on our customers with long-term security, and there is no doubt about the continued existence of Oppold. As a long-standing employee and now managing director, I also have a very personal attachment to our company.”

The strategic realignment was already initiated with a first joint sales meeting at a major supplier in Neresheim. Schmidt and the entire Oppold sales team continue to focus on existing markets with local partners, placing their customers at the center of all activities.

Swedish investment company as new owner

RWP Holding is part of the Swedish Röko AB, an investment company focused on acquiring medium-sized businesses. Unlike traditional funds, Röko AB pursues a strategy of holding companies permanently rather than selling them.

With the acquisition by RWP Holding, the future of the long-established company Oppold System International is secured for the long term. The previous shareholder, Carsten Jungk, who served as co-managing director until January 2025, left the shareholder structure in August.
