Describe your business model (including type of company, products / services)
Impressive.
Effective.
Real.
Founded in 1936 by Herrmann Arnholdt, nicknamed "Arno", and Elfriede Arnholdt as a company for shop window advertising, ARNO has developed into a specialist for displays, shop-in-shop and store solutions. The company is currently managed by the 3rd generation. The owners are the three siblings Tim Arnholdt, Alien Wolter and Sophie Keim. Alien Wolter and Tim Arnholdt have been Managing Directors of the ARNO Group together with Steffen Rothmeier since 2013. The company headquarters have been located in Wolfschlugen since 1985.
As a partner for the shopping experience of the future, renowned customers around the world rely on ARNO. The owner-managed, medium-sized family business stages brands at the point of experience (POE) with customised concepts that enable brands to clearly differentiate themselves from the competition. ARNO positions its customers' brands at the POE with new ideas, lots of creativity and plenty of expertise to create genuine in-store experiences. In doing so, the company relies on the passion and enthusiasm of its employees. ARNO pursues its goal together with them, its subsidiaries and a reliable partner network:
ARNO utilises every conceivable option in the realisation process. As a rock-solid and highly innovative company, we combine uncompromising quality, responsibility and cost awareness with customer proximity, flexibility and the innovative spirit of an internationally active group of companies. Always with the aim of inspiring customers and their consumers with unique experiences at the point of experience. Specifically, these are displays, shop-in-shops and shopfitting elements - in other words: everything that is used in retail to present products and represent brands..
As of 1 January 2023, the ARNO Group is represented in 5 countries worldwide with locations in Germany, the UK, China and Turkey as well as a strategic alliance in the USA.
ARNO GmbH is the largest employer at the main site in Wolfschlugen near Stuttgart. 192 employees, including 3 trainees, achieved a total turnover of 45.5 million euros. Here, 420,000 components were produced and 26.5 million euros were generated.


We advise. We design. We develop. We produce.
The entire value creation process takes place with consultation, always.: Our customers benefit from our many years of experience and expertise right from the start. Because we create sustainable products through consulting and expertise and thus realise the added value of tomorrow. As a B2B project manufacturer, we produce individual, small and large series as a result of our special product segment, the sales promotion of brands. Products are developed and manufactured to order, "customised", within a fixed and usually time-limited period, we do not produce a standard range. Our objective is to generate added value for our customers and their consumers with visually convincing and economically viable results. The way to achieve this is through intensive interdisciplinary collaboration: from concept development and three-dimensional design, to prototype construction and series production, through to logistics and assembly on site - anywhere in the world. The link between integration capability and differentiation is a key aspect here: our projects fit into existing spaces and at the same time form an eye-catching contrast to the competitive environment.
Our mission "Creating Instore Success. Together" is something we live together with our employees and customers to create unique instore solutions. We are designers, developers, project managers, engineers, purchasers, logisticians, installers and others. Each one a highly qualified expert in their own right. All in all, a dynamic mix of experienced professionals and promising young talent. What drives us are values such as integrity, trust, commitment, quality and the firm conviction that you have to consciously improve every day in order to achieve excellent results for your customers in the long term. This is also what makes us the "Partner of Choice" for many brand and retail companies.
Certified to the ISO 9001 quality management standard and ISO 14001 environmental management standard for 15 years, we see ourselves as a driving force in our industry. Quality and sustainability goals have been anchored in our corporate strategy ever since, see 3. goals. Since 2020, we have published an annual sustainability report based on the GRI with the aim of "transparently" demonstrating that our business practices are ethically correct and fair and that we assume ecological responsibility. If you have any questions about the sustainability report, please get in touch with the contact person named on page 1.
