Political Statement
Rossmann CEO Draws Clear Line Against the AfD
May 2026
Raoul Roßmann, CEO of the German drugstore chain Rossmann, has publicly distanced himself from the AfD. His stance is unambiguous: "I don't want to greet Björn Höcke at our firm." After the Association of Family Entrepreneurs invited AfD representatives to a conference, Roßmann left the association and has not rejoined. Grounding his position in business experience, he pointed to the concrete losses Rossmann suffered under Orbán´s government in Hungary, which he considers comparable to the AfD, as evidence that such politics harm companies rather than help them.
