In focus for 2017: Support of sales partners The targeted support of the sales partners, the development of careers and, as a result, the sustained expansion of sales structures take centre stage in 2017. “As a genuine network marketing company, the intensive exchange and dialogue with our sales partners is essential for us. This is the only way to ensure that the sales partners are supported in a needs-oriented way, to win them over to our business and bind them in the long term,” says Dr. Thomas Stoffmehl. Site investment: Extension of the production capacities The expansion of the company site in Ahlen is part of the company’s sustainable growth strategy.

With a strong team of over 1,200 LR employees worldwide, we are well positioned to tackle these challenges,” says Dr. Thomas Stoffmehl.
