COMPANY
The success story of the Fakir company began in 1933 when Wilhelm Kicherer, the father of the present main shareholder Heinz Kicherer, founded a factory in the town of Muehlacker. The company expanded quickly. Fakir soon became a well-known hallmark of high quality and innovative technology in the area of domestic appliances.

The company grew consistently and in 1978 with great foresight, the management decided to expand with the purchase of new, large premises in Vaihingen/Enz. Part of the production was moved from Muehlacker to the new premises because the original factory which was based in the town centre had to give way to the redesigning of Muehlacker town centre and in particular the Muehlehof cultural and shopping mall.

This extensive expansion went hand in hand with the innovative development of the company. Today, as from the beginning, Fakir's focus is set firmly on intensive research and development carried forward by the company management and highly motivated as well as qualified staff in all departments. Fakir has met the challenges of a growing European market and rapid changes in technology with its high quality products and with certification according to DIN EN ISO 9001, thus creating an unmistakable profile marked by quality and reliability.

The sales organisation of the company, into which the nilco-Reinigungsmaschinen GmbH was incorporated in 1961 for the industrial cleaning machines sector, has over 13 regional trade agencies in Germany and a network of 140 authorized workshops.

The globalization of the economy is developing fast. Already today 20 % of the worldwide gross domestic product is produced in global markets and in the years to come this share will be increased greatly. Therefore, thinking and acting in a global context is the basic requirement for future success.

Throughout the world, 60 Fakir/nilco agencies prove the constant success of this Vaihingen-based company in a hotly contested and competitive market.

Along with the expansion of the company, the range of Fakir/nilco products has also been adapted to the constantly changing and growing demands and the different requirements of private households and industrial customers. It includes electrical cleaning appliances of all kinds for household and industry such as vacuum cleaners, brush vacuum cleaners, floor polishers and wet cleaning appliances. In a second product section, electrical direct heating appliances such as fan heaters, rapid heaters, convectors, radiators and storage heaters are produced and marketed. The range is rounded off by a third product line consisting of cooling fans and air conditioners. Since 2003, innovative ironing boards and ironing stations complete the range.

A modern, responsible company has to be aware of its part in the social and commercial surroundings. Serving the requirements of our customers, meeting the quality standards and the innovation level as well as the progress of our own company and its staff are of great importance to us.

The major aims and principles of the company are still made up of the following elements: Development of high quality products and close customer relationships by means of reliable and fast services customised to the customer's wishes.
