About us

Bert, Georg and Edith Schukat

 
 
 
"As a franchise partner and distributor, our customers receive standard quantities at reasonable prices direct from stock, large quantities on individual terms, products that meet customers' requirements, and special logistics services. We stand by this."

 

The Schukats
Schukat electronic was founded in 1964 by Hans-Georg Schukat in Monheim am Rhein and since then has remained an independent family-run company. Characterised by continuous growth, the company is now led by the second generation of Schukats – siblings Georg, Bert and Edith Schukat. Around 150 employees plus 20 trainees are employed in Monheim am Rhein and in 2023 generated € 145m [gross] in turnover.

Principles
The guidelines for our relationships with our business partners and employees are mutual satisfaction and esteem, continuity and independence.

As a franchise partner, on the one hand, we offer our customers competent development and logistics support, for example with Sunon, MEAN WELL, Sensata/Crydom, Microchip, Panasonic, Talema, TSC and LiteOn.

Vocational Training
Our trainees are the cornerstone of our success. Of around 70 commercial employees at Schukat, more than 50 completed their vocational training with us – with many now holding leadership positions. They are well prepared for this, with many of our trainees undertaking higher education studies alongside their work during or after their traineeship.
Every year, our trainees deliver above-average exam performance, with several achieving results of “very good.” We are regularly honoured with a "special commendation" for "outstanding performance in vocational training" by the Düsseldorf Chamber of Commerce. In addition, in 2014, we received the Dusseldorf Chamber of Commerce Prize for Education and Training – awarded to "a company that has made an outstanding contribution to the education of young people."
We have also been the recipients of the Federal Employment Agency certificate for our "exemplary training". Our partner school is the Peter Ustinov Comprehensive School in Monheim. We systematically connect the knowledge gained at school with the business world, with practical experience days, art projects, and regular discussion rounds between students and our trainees.

Environment
Since 1990, we have printed all of our correspondence on 100% recycled paper. Our company premises meet the low-energy standard. We are exclusive users of green electricity. Packing materials are separated and collected for recycling.
And for more than 25 years, one of our directors has been riding a bicycle to work – if he has not yet started coming here in his BMW i3 electric car, like our other director :-)

Responsibility
For 20 years, we supported Catholic nun Sister Benita in her efforts to establish a school and college in Zimbabwe. In 2013, we turned to the work of the ecumenical Taizé brothers in northern Brazil. In a poverty stricken district, the brothers offer food, education and care for children from poor homes and broken families, helping in the fight against child labour and drug dependency.
In addition, we support our own community projects and contribute to schools in Monheim am Rhein.
