1. Schwarzkopf is celebrating its 111th anniversary. What does that mean for the#hairdresser?

Norbert Koll: Schwarzkopf represents both pride in the past and a strong focus on the future. Hairdressers choose us as their partner because they want to work with a company that stands for a wealth of experience and name recognition and that invests a maximum of energy in innovative products and services for professional hairdressers. In difficult times such as these, it is especially important to have a strong partner at one’s side. Schwarzkopf Professional is strong, and it has the competence needed to help the hairdresser to be successful with creative concepts.

2. What role does Schwarzkopf Professional play in the world market?

Norbert Koll: We are one of the three leading suppliers of hairdressing products and services worldwide and are represented throughout the world. Schwarzkopf Professional is renowned for its dynamism. We are one of the fastest-moving and fastest-growing brands in the international hairdressing market. Not only do we have an especially strong presence in the established European markets, but we are also market leaders in new markets, such as in Russia, and we have recorded phenomenal growth in the Asia-Pacific region as well. Here we are especially pleased with our outstanding successes in China, which serves as a growth engine for the entire region.
