At the same time, we are always focused on growing the company in a healthy, strong and sustainable manner.

CEWE is top dividend payer: 2nd place out of 611 companies

Since the first dividend payout after the IPO in 1993, CEWE has been paying its shareholders a dividend without interruption - and after successfully mastering the analog/digital transformation, it has now even increased its dividend for the fifteenth time in a row. According to the recently published 'Dividend Study Germany 2024' by Dividenden Adel, isf Institut and Deutsche Schutzvereinigung für Wertpapierbesitz DSW, CEWE ranks second among all 611 German listed companies surveyed that have continuously increased their dividends. CEWE actively promotes the participation of its own employees in the company: Already today, a good eight out of ten CEWE employees hold company shares and thus participate in the company's positive development.
