Torsten Toeller
Torsten Toeller is a prominent German entrepreneur and the founder of Fressnapf, Europe's largest pet supplies retailer. He established the first Fressnapf store in Erkelenz in 1990, inspired by American retail concepts, which quickly became a leader in the pet care market. Under his leadership, Fressnapf expanded to operate over 2,700 stores across 15 countries, employing around 20,000 people and generating significant annual revenue. Toeller stepped down from day-to-day operations in 2016 but remains influential as the Chairman, focusing on strategic initiatives and the company's growth. Recently, he has made headlines discussing pet market trends, economic challenges, and his experience with a failed investment in René Benko's Signa Group, which resulted in substantial financial losses.
