Hospitality and Miele laundry machines at the Grünauerhof hotel: a recipe for success for over 35 years

It all started with a little inn back in 1898. And the Grünauerhof in Wals near Salzburg in Austria is still a family-run business today – following numerous modernisation projects and the addition of new buildings, it is now a four-star hotel with 64 rooms and a large wellness area. Five rustic restaurants with space for 650 diners serve regional and international cuisine prepared using products from the hotel’s own farm. And the laundry facilities are on site too. For over 35 years, Miele laundry machines have been providing the hotel with beautifully laundered bed linen, towelling textiles, tablecloths and napkins.

Miele consolidates its growth path and enters the 2025 business year with confidence

Miele Group consolidated its growth path in the business year 2024. In a demanding market environment and in the face of macroeconomic challenges, Miele achieved a turnover of 5.04 billion euros. This corresponds to an increase of 1.7 percent compared to the previous year. The number of employees rose to a total of 23,500 as a result of acquisitions, an increase of 3.4 percent. Around 11,300 people were employed in Germany, 4.2 percent fewer year-on-year. As part of the MPP (Miele Performance Program) transformation initiative launched in 2024, Miele has since achieved important milestones, and, thanks to the programme, has been able to rule out compulsory redundancies in Germany.

Miele commercial dishwasher keeps water bottles clean in a retirement home in Belgium

Hygiene is a key priority at the De Medemens St. Bavo retirement home in Antwerp, Belgium. At the same time, staff are keen to involve the residents in the day-to-day routine at the home. At the heart of each residential group is the kitchen, where help is always welcome – when emptying the dishwasher, for example. The machine is very similar to the sort of appliance that many of the residents will know from home, but this one can do more and is suitable for cleaning reusable bottles. Miele Professional has developed a special lower basket for this purpose, which can be inserted in just a few steps.
