The company IKO is a very good example of how seamlessly a business transfer can work. Also in the 2nd generation we remain successful on the market. We see our core competence as an importer and wholesaler of price-orientated gift and decoration articles. Due to our streamlined and well-organised company structure we are able to work with a very small margin. We are happy to pass this advantage on to you through our extremely competitive prices.
We combine old commercial values with new, modern techniques and working methods. A fair and cooperative partnership with both our customers and our employees is very important to us. Only together can we achieve business success. Fast and efficient processing plays a major role for us.
I myself did not learn my profession at school but was born into the family business IKO. Very early on I was able to learn how to achieve success through ambition and commitment, as well as what it means to be independent. Since I know all areas of the company very well and can draw on more than 15 years of professional experience in management, I am confident that you will find a competent partner in me and my team. My father, Klaus Otte, is of course still available to all of us as Senior Managing Director to provide advice and support.
Especially in the area of “customised products“ we believe we have great strengths. Thus we realise the production of more than 400 articles to customer order every year, which do not appear in our standard assortment. You can find further information about this here:
If you have questions, suggestions or criticism, please do not hesitate to contact me. I would be happy to try to find a suitable solution.
