MUSGRAVE GROUP


FAMI LY MUSGRAVE SECTOR FOOD COUNTRY IRELAND


When a family business can lay claim to feeding one in every three Irish consumers, it must be doing something right. But when it is also leading with cutting-edge governance structures, this marks them out as special. The Musgrave Group is an exemplar of the connection between excellent family business governance and commercial success. It is Ireland’s market leading grocery retailer, and the largest wholesale food supplier, as well as being highly innovative. ‘Frank & Honest’ was launched two years ago as a new brand of artisan coffee and it is the first Irish retailer selling directly to China via Alibaba Group Partnership.

When company founder Emil Richterich started producing his distinctive herbal cough drops in 1940 he would be proud that almost 80 years later the company would still be under family ownership. Today, executive board president and third- generation family member Felix Richterich directs the fortunes of the company with Raphael Richterich, 33, a representative of the younger generation, joining the executive board in early 2017. Ricola’s recipe has been a success with Ricola posting revenues of CHF325 million ($333 million) in 2017, a 6% annual increase.

VANDERSANDEN GROUP


SECTOR BUILDING MATERIALS COUNTRY BELGIUM


The largest brick-producing family business in Europe, with two production sites in Belgium and two in the Netherlands, Vandersanden Group makes almost a million bricks per day, selling about 60 million pavers a year. The company is environmentally conscious—between 1995 and 2001 it replaced its first two factories in Spouwen with a second large and ultra-modern factory. Within the Vandersanden Group, there is also a good balance between family and external management. The business has a comprehensive and well- structured family charter.
