Galeria: This is the man behind the clear cut – economy

The collapse of the drugstore chain Schlecker suddenly made him known throughout the country. Ten years after the bankruptcy, some of the almost 25,000 “Schlecker-Frauen” still rave about Arndt Geiwitz, the slim, tall man with the soft, Swabian accent. Geiwitz was seen as a fighter against greedy company owners, as an avenger for disenfranchised saleswomen, as sensitive, with human integrity and not at all arrogant. And to this day, the managing partner of the business law firm SGP Schneider Geiwitz in Neu-Ulm always has a friendly smile on his face, even under the greatest stress.
