The European Clearing Center (ECC), the central platform for the data exchange of more than 1,824 trading companies and 750 manufacturers in the areas of shoes, textiles, accessories, leather and stockings, furniture and sports, has new company shares on January 1, 2024 orderly. The industry associations ANWR Group, Sabu and HDS/L are taking over the shares of the departing shareholder ETS (Etos and Seithe & Partner) and would like to express their thanks for the good and cooperative cooperation.
Jörg Frommann, founder and long-time managing director of ECC, is leaving the company. With the new constellation, Stefan Nicolai will take over ECC as sole managing director.
Everyone involved agrees on the importance of the ECC and the need for closer, cross-sector collaboration. With the new structure, the industry associations want to further invest in the digitalization of the industry.
Manfred Junkert, General Manager of HDS/L: “It is our common goal to leverage the potential we have in our industry through the further development of the ECC and its consistent use. We have made very good progress here in the past few months. The new shareholder structure is proof that we are serious.”
