Flensburg's economic focus is also quite diverse. Did you know, for example, that high-quality paper has been produced in our beautiful fjord city for hundreds of years? Mitsubishi Hitec Paper Europe GmbH is just one example of the numerous companies that have had their home port in Flensburg for generations. The following sectors are also particularly well represented:
From newspaper publishing to the advertising industry - at HOCHZWEI, the sh:z Medienhaus and the Flensburg Journal, among others, everything revolves around the (written) word.
Two hospitals - the DIAKO and the St. Franziskus Hospital - ensure Flensburg's health care, while Queisser Pharma, with its Doppelherz brand, is probably one of Germany's best-known pharmaceutical producers.
Whether warehouse and logistics or sales and marketing - ORION, WITTE, Trixie and DF Automotive are among the largest employers in our region.
Perfect settings for recreation, weddings or conferences are offered by e.g. the Hotel Hafen Flensburg, the Alte Meierhof, the Hotel Wassersleben or Das James. FRS provides ferry connections worldwide.
Are you creative and design-minded and would like to make a difference with your hands? Then companies like the construction company Höft, Elektro Stapelfeldt or Hand-in-Hand-Werker offer good opportunities. If you want to gain a foothold as an apprentice in the skilled trades, it's best to contact the HWK Flensburg.
The main focus of our educational institutions Europa-Universität Fl ensburg and Hochschule Flensburg is on teaching, shipping, social subjects, media and communication, and climate and environment.
Anyone who would like to get involved in social activities - whether full-time or on a voluntary basis - or is looking for support themselves, will find what they are looking for with our social economy members Die Mürwiker GmbH, Adelby1, Lebenshilfe Flensburg gGmbH and many other social sponsors in the region.
