Turnover totalled 923 million euros: very good performance with healthy growth rates in Germany and worldwide
International multi-service provider Klüh ended the 2022 financial year with turnover of 923 million euros. The company therefore continued its growth trajectory and increased turnover by 13.4% compared with the pandemic year of 2021. Worldwide, the company’s workforce expanded from 52,391 to 57,977. By implementing a consistent sustainability strategy and the high standards evolved during the company’s 111-year success story, Klüh was able to support clients in many sectors professionally, reliably and in a spirit of partnership. A major factor in this performance was the innovative strength of Klüh Multiservices.
The company’s specialist divisions – Cleaning, Catering, Clinic Service, Security, Personnel Service, Airport Service and Integrated Services – and international companies again proved to be a guarantee for healthy development.
Klüh Cleaning was the biggest contributor to turnover with a figure of 330.5 million euros and continued to develop as a knowledge-based partner. Smart cleaning – a 360-degree concept offered by this high-quality service provider – impressed a growing number of clients. The deployment of intelligent software such as cobotics and robotics resulted in further improvements to both quality and service. Thanks to sustainable initiatives coupled with digital innovations, the company also helped its clients to reduce their environmental footprint.
The Catering division is a strong pillar of Klüh Multiservices. Its expertise and qualities as a very good host in both Business Catering and Care Catering again earned the company many awards in 2022. These included a first place for customer satisfaction and recognition as the top contract caterer. Each month, more than one million meals are prepared for employees, patients, senior citizens, school pupils, students, guests and travellers. In terms of turnover, Klüh Catering and Klüh Security are the second-largest divisions of Klüh Multiservices.

Service companies have been established to manage all non-medical services. Compared with 2021, Clinic Service increased turnover by 14.2% to 177 million euros.
