Economic Minister Colette Boos-John tours Kynast power facilities in Dermbach
In a recent visit to Kynast Elektroanlagen GmbH's modern headquarters in Wiesenthaler Straße, Thuringian Minister of Economy, Agriculture and Rural Areas, Colette Boos-John (CDU), recognised the company's pivotal role in the regional and beyond economy. Established in 1917 by Richard Kynast, the company is currently led by Andreas Kynast in its fifth generation.
During the visit, Dr. Luisa Kynast presented the historical development and current profile of the company to the guests, emphasising their commitment to training young people and their intensive cooperation with schools, particularly in the context of student internships. The company's engagement in these areas was positively highlighted.
Minister Boos-John encouraged regional and cross-industry networking among medium-sized companies to assert themselves more strongly against politics and administration. She acknowledged the need to reduce bureaucracy as a central task. Challenges discussed during the visit included excessive bureaucracy and critical handling of tax funds. Dr. Kynast advocated for a reform of the funding policy, citing insufficient targeting under the previous red-red-green state government.
The company, which employs 170 people, including 17 apprentices, has an annual turnover of around 30 million euros. Kynast Elektroanlagen GmbH offers a wide range of services, including electrical installations, measurement, control, and regulation technology, building automation, and maintenance.
The minister's visit was to honour the significant role of Kynast Elektroanlagen GmbH for the economy of the Thuringian Rhön and beyond. Moreover, the company's upcoming project, the electrical installation of the new stadium for Bundesliga club 1. FC Union Berlin, was noteworthy. This project, with supraregional impact, underscores the importance of performance-oriented medium-sized businesses like Kynast Elektroanlagen GmbH for a strong, future-oriented economy in Thuringia.
