Our success story
The idea for SALT AND PEPPER was born in 2008. The company’s four founders – Sven Scholz, Gisbert Dörner, Marko Schluroff and Florian Kirstein – had had enough of rigid structures and the numbers-driven approach of their previous firms. Their vision was to establish an engineering company that brings together two things: a focus on clients and a focus on employees. An evening of cooking on a North Sea island set the ball rolling. Passionate cooks in their spare time, the four men cast their minds back and discovered new things. As they added the final seasoning, they hit upon the idea – and name – of SALT AND PEPPER.
Today, SALT AND PEPPER is a successful corporate group. With some 600 employees across 10 offices and a Centre of Competence, we drive forward the technological advancement of our clients. What started as one business unit – Technology Consulting – has since blossomed into two. Our portfolio of expertise – which encompasses the engineering & IT services provider SALT AND PEPPER Technology and the transformation consultancy experts SALT AND PEPPER Consulting – makes us unique on the market.
Over the past twelve years, we have been able to amass extensive cross-industry expertise and now handle projects from nine different industries, ranging from automotive to shipbuilding. Our clients value our interdisciplinary capabilities and the option of harnessing the combined knowledge of different experts. Throughout the evolution of the company, one factor has always played a pivotal role: the human factor. We wouldn’t have got to where we are today without the SALT AND PEPPER corporate culture, which gives employees freedom and fosters entrepreneurial thinking. Working boldly, quickly and flexibly, we break new ground every day. This is the cornerstone of our success.
