E.W.A. Wessendorf GmbH

New building in Barsbüttel combines tradition and innovation

Our Managing Director Ulf Hahn visited the impressive construction site of the new company headquarters in the Barsbüttel industrial estate together with Moritz Wessendorf, Managing Director of E.W.A. Wessendorf GmbH.

The owner-managed family business, now in its third generation, imports high-quality food from Asia and supplies catering and wholesale throughout Germany - with Hanseatic reliability and entrepreneurial vision.

From family business to established food importer

What once began as a small food importer has developed over decades into a recognised partner for Asian specialities.
Today, E.W.A. Wessendorf GmbH stands for quality, variety and reliability in the food trade.
With the move to Barsbüttel, the company responds to its continuous growth and creates the basis for a modern and sustainable corporate structure.

Modern new building for efficiency, well-being and quality

During the tour of the construction site, it became clear that the new company headquarters will be a place of progress.
A state-of-the-art deep-freeze and dry storage facility, structured office space and spacious social rooms create ideal conditions for efficient organisation and a pleasant working environment.
The well thought-out building concept combines functionality, quality and team spirit - in keeping with the spirit of the family-run company.

Sustainable technologies and responsibility for the future

The new site relies on sustainable technologies such as photovoltaic systems and energy recovery systems, which significantly reduce the ecological footprint.
The new building also offers space for training and promoting young talent - a clear sign of regional responsibility and securing skilled labour in the long term.
This is how E.W.A. Wessendorf combines economic success with social and ecological responsibility.

Expansion with regional ties

The planned move in 2025 will open a new chapter for E.W.A. Wessendorf:
More space, more efficiency - and new opportunities to expand the range of Asian specialities and further strengthen the regional market.
The company is thus remaining true to its Hanseatic roots, while at the same time growing in Stormarn with an eye to the future.

A family business with heart and perspective

We would like to thank Moritz Wessendorf for the exciting insights and the open dialogue.
With a spirit of innovation, sustainability and regional roots, E.W.A. Wessendorf shows how tradition and the future fit together perfectly - a real role model for Stormarn as a business location.
