About Me

Christian Haub runs his family's Tengelmann Group, a retail conglomerate that began with a shop opened in Muelheim an der Ruhr in 1867 and today employs more than 70,000. Its operations include home-improvement chain OBI; clothing and non-food discounter KiK; online retailer babymarkt.de; and food production company No Meat Factory. The group also invests in startups and is active in services (energy, plus audits and consulting), property management and real estate development. Older brother Karl-Erivan and Christian had taken over as co-CEOs in 2000. In 2018, Karl-Erivan went missing while on a ski tour. In 2021, he was declared dead. In 2021 Christian bought an additional stake in Tengelmann 21 from Karl-Erivan's two children, reportedly paying as much as $1.6 billion. He is now its largest shareholder with a 68.67% stake.
