With commitment and foresight, Tamaris has been built up into one of the strongest shoe brands.<span style=\"white-space: pre;\"> <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"text body\" doc-editable=\"text\" data-component-id=\"doc-1j9uet8m50\">The future management team at Wortmann KG consists exclusively of long-serving employees who began their career with the company. The family-run company is thus focusing on experience, reliability and the sustainable promotion of young talent.\u202f&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"text body\" doc-editable=\"text\" data-component-id=\"doc-1j9uet8mp0\">With Ulrich Kl\u00fcber&#8217;s retirement in summer 2026, Matthias Rodemeier will become the new Partner and Managing Director of Wortmann KG and Chief Product Officer. In addition to the Tamaris collection, he will also be responsible for sales in the DACH region.<span style=\"white-space: pre;\"> <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"text body\" doc-editable=\"text\" data-component-id=\"doc-1j9uet8n90\">At the same time as Rodemeier, Michael Romberg, who is already Managing Director and Partner at Jana Shoes, will additionally take over as Chief Production Officer at Wortmann KG responsible for overseeing the sourcing and production of the Tamaris brand and will thus also perform a coordinating role within the Group.<span style=\"white-space: pre;\"> <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"text body\" doc-editable=\"text\" data-component-id=\"doc-1j9uet8nq0\">In summer 2027, Dr Giovanni Lacatena will end his operational responsibilities at Wortmann KG as planned.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text body\" doc-editable=\"text\" data-component-id=\"doc-1j9uet8o40\">On 1 June 2027, Nico Gold will become Chief Sales Officer at Wortmann KG. In addition to his role at Wortmann Fashion Retail, he will be responsible for international sales and system partnerships. He will be supported in the expansion of international sales by Felix Schmalenberger, who has been a member of the management team for many years.<span style=\"white-space: pre;\"> <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"text body\" doc-editable=\"text\" data-component-id=\"doc-1j9uet8od0\">With the future management team under Wortmann Schuh-Holding KG&#8217;s Managing Partner Jens Beining and Dr Tobias Seng as CFO, Wortmann KG will thus be positioned for the further development of the Tamaris brand in the long term. The combination of experience, customer focus, innovative strength and international orientation ensures sustainable and successful corporate development.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text body\" doc-editable=\"text\" data-component-id=\"doc-1j9uet8ov0\">\u201cThe generational change at Tamaris, which has been initiated at an early stage, ensures continuity, allowing the company to remain on course for future success. The future management represents the customary reliability, specialist retail orientation, willingness to innovate and the sustainable further development of the brand,\u201d says Jens Beining.<span style=\"white-space: pre;\"> <\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"slideshow _fit-frame-height-to-content\" data-slideshow-component=\"\" data-component-id=\"doc-1j9uep8ia0\">\n<div class=\"slideshow-container\" doc-slideshow=\"slideshow\" _slideshow-size-ratio=\"1.33\" style=\"height: 0px; padding-bottom: 133.417%;\">\n<div u=\"slides\" class=\"slides\" doc-container=\"slideshow\">\n<figure class=\"image\" data-tap-fullscreen=\"\" data-component-id=\"doc-1j9uepbke0\">\n<div doc-image=\"image\" doc-link=\"hyperlink\" style=\"background-size: 100%; background-image: url('https:\/\/arsutoriastudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/132655-132654.jpeg');\"><\/div><figcaption doc-editable=\"caption\"><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"image\" data-tap-fullscreen=\"\" data-component-id=\"doc-1j9uepcrt0\">\n<div doc-image=\"image\" doc-link=\"hyperlink\" style=\"background-size: 100%; background-image: url('https:\/\/arsutoriastudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/132655-132653.jpeg');\"><\/div><figcaption doc-editable=\"caption\"><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>        <span u=\"arrowleft\" class=\"arrow _left\"><\/span><br \/>\n        <span u=\"arrowright\" class=\"arrow _right\"><\/span><\/p>\n<div u=\"thumbnavigator\" class=\"thumbnavigator\">\n<div u=\"slides\" class=\"thumbslides\">\n<div u=\"prototype\" class=\"thumbproto\">\n<div class=\"thumb-w\">\n<div u=\"thumbnailtemplate\" class=\"thumb-t\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"thumb-c\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The brand, part of the Wortmann Group, is charting its course for the future with the aim of continuing the company&#8217;s success and further expanding the brand&#8217;s growth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":14169,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[147],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-14166","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-company-news-arsutoria"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/arsutoriastudio.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14166","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/arsutoriastudio.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/arsutoriastudio.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/arsutoriastudio.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/arsutoriastudio.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14166"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/arsutoriastudio.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14166\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/arsutoriastudio.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/14169"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/arsutoriastudio.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14166"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/arsutoriastudio.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=14166"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/arsutoriastudio.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=14166"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
