Precisely 75 years ago, in 1940 and in the middle of the chaos unleashed by the Second World War, Hans Rahn founded Rahn AG in Zurich as a one-man business. The tradition-steeped Swiss corporate group is still based in Zurich today.
Rahn AG and its six subsidiaries now have a total workforce of 114 and achieve annual sales of CHF120M. As a technology oriented company, the Group provides customers in around 50 countries globally with natural and synthetic raw materials and services, for industries including paints and coatings, cosmetics and foodstuffs. Designated R&D departments facilitate on-going product development and application support for a diverse range of customers. As a result, the company is driven by innovation and cutting-edge technology.
The anniversary celebrations planned for 2015 cover a range of internal and public events. In keeping with the focus of the Rahn Cultural Fund, a concert will be held in Zurich on February 25, featuring international top cellist Sol Gabetta and with a gala dinner afterwards for invited guests.
