OUR TEAM.
PASSIONATE ABOUT COFFEE AND PEOPLE.
OUR BUSINESS HAS ALWAYS DEPENDED ON OUR EMPLOYEES AND RELATIONSHIPS. SINCE 1922.
As a company of Neumann Kaffee Gruppe, now managed by the third generation of the Neumann family, a family atmosphere is very important to us. An experienced, dynamic and international team has grown up in this environment over many decades and generations.
Each of our 43 employees makes a valuable contribution by advising and supporting our customers along the entire supply chain – with a mixture of superior coffee know how, many years of experience, a necessary spirit of innovation and more than 10 spoken languages.
The Management. HOME-GROWN COFFEE EXPERTS.
Both Jens Janecki and Ruben Scholz know the company and the world of coffee inside out.
They’ve worked for Bernhard Rothfos for several decades.
JENS JANECKI
“I prefer my coffee black. It enables me to keep discovering
new flavors even after all these years.”
Jens Janecki has been with Bernhard Rothfos for a long time. He started his training as a merchant in wholesale & foreign trade at Bernhard Rothfos in 1983. After stints in our Quality and Futures teams he started focusing on the green coffee trade in 1988. In between his positions at Bernhard Rothfos, he was also assigned overseas within Neumann Kaffee Gruppe – as director at Truxo Ltd. in London for two years (1992-1994) and as CEO at Rothfos Corporation in New York for 4 years (2008-2011). Since his return to Hamburg at the end of 2011, he has been Managing Director of Bernhard Rothfos GmbH.
RUBEN SCHOLZ
“I like best to drink my coffee black so as to taste all
the flavors in their purest form.”
Ruben Scholz started working for Bernhard Rothfos in 1997 and has never looked back: after completing his training as a merchant in wholesale & foreign trade, he worked in the Trade department at Bernhard Rothfos for the next 15 years. Following several promotions, he became Director of Washed Arabica in 2013/2014, before being appointed to the Management in 2014.
