It is the licence holder of the French lifestyle brand Daniel Hechter and its primary field of business is the European shoe market. Historical backgroundWith the foundation of a tannery in the German town of Guben (Brandenburg) in 1862, the company's history begins. Throughout the years, a shoe factory emerged from this tannery, which company founder Erich Rohde overtook in 1926 and finally turned into a production plant. Acting in the legal form of a limited partnership, the Erich Rohde KG started expanding in the 1960s and founded subsidiaries in Austria and Germany aas well as production plants in Portugal and Eastern Europe. Through the integration of modern computer technologies, the company enhanced its equipment and thus accelerated the production processes due to actual market development. In 1996, the Erich Rohde GmbH got the license for producing and selling the shoe collection of the French lifestyle brand Daniel Hechter and thus broadened its offerings. In 2008, the company was restructured and turned into a limited company which is headed by the CEOs Dr. Stephan Harmening and Oliver Kraxner.
