When Trigema boss Wolfgang Grupp, 82, resigned earlier this year, he distributed his responsibilities unequally between his two sons: he named Wolfgang Grupp Junior, following his own example, personally responsible partner and CEO. Bonita Grupp became part of the board of directors without any personal responsibility.

Now Wolfgang Grupp Junior has explained that he still considers his sister as an equal. “When my sister decides something, I don't even think about whether she was right or wrong,” Grupp Junior said in an interview with the “Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung.” “I know she did it in the 100% interest of our company.”

Only Wolfgang Grupp Junior can lose personal property

If Bonita Grupp wanted to contradict him, she could do so at any time. In their opinion, they then assume “full responsibility” for this veto.

However, only he can lose his personal property. He thinks his sister shouldn't lose anything, regardless of who made the wrong decision. “It is enough for someone to hold their head in the end,” said Wolfgang Grupp Júnior.
