We are your partner

Do you run a business, want to start one, are looking for skilled workers—or are you thinking about building your professional future in Schleiden? We’re here to help.

GfW Schleiden is your partner for local economic development. We guide existing businesses through change processes, assist with location and business establishment issues as well as business succession, and are committed to the development of skilled workers and the next generation. At the same time, we drive sustainable development and support businesses in their digital transformation—including in the context of AI.

As a diverse community, Schleiden thrives on a strong sense of togetherness: We connect the trades, the hotel and restaurant industry, manufacturing and industry, as well as service companies, and foster exchange within this established structure. In close collaboration with the secondary schools in the school town of Schleiden, we strengthen career guidance early on and support young people on their path into the local workforce.

At the same time, we are committed to helping skilled workers rediscover their hometown—as a place that opens up new opportunities: modern, sustainably developed, and attractive for both living and working.

We focus on direct engagement: through corporate dialogues on key topics such as the integration of artificial intelligence into business operations, in-store discussions, networking events, and personal visits to your workplaces. Additionally, we initiate and support collaborative initiatives such as the Open Day Eifel—an open house event for recruiting skilled workers—or the FürSorge Tag Eifel—an informational forum on retirement planning and future-oriented topics.

Please contact us—we look forward to connecting with you: wirtschaft@schleiden-eifel.com

Together, we will strengthen Schleiden as a vibrant economic and living environment with a promising future.
