In business since 1989moving forward with courage and a clear vision

Rooted in family tradition. Strengthened through reliability. Driven by vision. – Family-run and globally networked, we have been a dependable and genuine partner in the cable industry for more than 35 years.

TRADITION WITH A
VIEW FORWARD

The history of böhm Kabel is characterized by the vision, courage and tireless commitment of Georg Böhm, who after many years of working and gaining experience in the “cable business” decided to make a fresh start. In his wife Elke, Georg not only found a loyal support on his path to independence, but also a force that had his back over the years.

On January 2, 1989, shortly before his 40th birthday, Georg founded the family business with Eberhard Stöcker at his side as an authorized signatory. In the beginning, with a small team of two full-time and one part-time employee, our company operated out of rented offices and a warehouse, formerly used as a florist's shop, located at Hall-Straße 8 in Iserlohn.

The sad passing of Eberhard Stöcker in 2009 was an important event in the company's history, but despite the challenges of his absence, the company continued on its path of growth.

LOGISTICS AS A SIGNPOST
INTO THE FUTURE

Our rapid growth quickly required larger premises. The cable warehouse was converted into additional office space, while stock and machinery had to be distributed over several warehouses, first to Piepenstockstraße and later to Baarstraße. 

This development led to the spatial separation of administration and warehouse and later to the logistics center.

In 1997, the company finally found a suitable site in the Kalthof district of Iserlohn, on which our modern Logistics I - Kalthofer Feld logistics center was built.

YEARS OF EXPERIENCE
INSPIRED BY 
NEW PERSPECTIVES

After training as a wholesale and foreign trade merchant, Georg's son Carsten joined the family business in 1992. Just four years later, in 1996, he was appointed Managing Director and has played a key role in shaping the corporate culture and strategy ever since. The company continues to develop thanks to Georg's in-depth experience and Carsten's innovative spirit.

In 2006, daughter Nadine followed her brother into the company after completing her business studies. Her appointment as an authorized signatory in 2017 helped to further develop the company and secure its future, before she was also appointed Managing Director in 2023. Today, she is responsible for HR management and marketing.

Against the backdrop of forward-looking development, Georg Böhm, founder and advisory Managing Director, attached great importance to the continuous involvement of his children. Today, they share responsibility with him and continue the vision of the company in the 2nd generation.
