Schwendimann AG wins SME award from ZKB
In the final for the 2017 ZKB SME Prize, which was awarded in the Umweltarena in Spreitenbach on January 26, 2017, the family business took first place.
In front of around 700 invited guests from the worlds of science, business and politics, Schwendimann AG was presented with the Zürcher Kantonalbank's SME Award for sustainable companies. The family-owned company with core competencies in waste separation and disposal, green care or street cleaning and maintenance relegated Biopartner Schweiz AG from Seon and J. Grimm AG from Oetwil am See to the places of honor. Matthias Schwendimann is suitably pleased: "Years ago, we did not write our objective under our logo for aesthetic reasons - "traditionally forward-looking since 1935" - but rather we strive for sustainability in the ecological, economic and social areas out of conviction. The renowned jury of the ZKB, which audited our company, is also of this opinion. This is a huge confirmation for our sustainable family business and shows us that we are on the right path into the future with our grandchild-friendly actions." The celebration was jointly accompanied by Heinz Kunz (Head of Corporate Clients at ZKB), Christoph Weber (Head of Private Banking and Deputy Chairman of the General Management) and Bruno Dobler (Vice Chairman of the Bank Executive Committee). The guests got in the mood for the award ceremony during Heinz Kunz's words of welcome and Sandra Studer's, as always, skillful moderation.
