🎒 Annual Social Day: Volunteering at Frankfurter Tafel e.V. 🎉❤️ Recently, an enthusiastic group of Merz employees had the opportunity to volunteer at Frankfurter Tafel E.V. as part of our annual Social Day initiative. This year, we were excited to expand our efforts and organize two impactful Social Days at their warehouse! During our time at the Tafel, we helped pack vital food supplies destined for families in need throughout Frankfurt. Our team worked alongside the amazing Tafel staff and fellow volunteers, who graciously showed us the ropes and explained the impact of our collective efforts. At Merz, we believe in making a difference, and we’re proud to contribute to initiatives that support local families during challenging times. #MyMerz #CommunitySupport #Volunteering #SocialDay #FrankfurterTafel #PositiveImpact #MerzTherapeutics #MerzAesthetics

🎒 Supporting School Starters in Frankfurt with Frankfurter Tafel e.V.! 🎉📚 As the new school year approaches, Merz is proud to have continued our commitment to helping local families in need. The start of school is a significant milestone for first graders, but for some parents, it also comes with financial challenges. That’s why this year, in collaboration with the Frankfurter Tafel e.V., Merz is happy to announce that our colleagues created and donated 25 "Schultüten"—special gift cones filled with school essentials and treats—to help ensure that every child has the tools they need for a positive start to their educational journey. "Education is incredibly important, and a successful start to school requires the right equipment. It’s a cause close to my heart, and I’m proud that Merz is stepping up to support families in Frankfurt," says Hans Jörg Bergler, COO of Merz Group. Merz also contributed a monetary donation to this initiative with additional generous donations from our employees. #MyMerz #SupportingEducation #BackToSchool #CommunityCare #MerzHelps

🌟 Merz Supplier Innovation Day: A Platform for Collaboration and Innovation! 🌍💡   We recently hosted our first Merz Supplier Innovation Day, organized by the Strategic Sourcing department, bringing together ten strategic suppliers from the Direct Goods sector.   Designed as an in-house expo, the Supplier Innovation Day served as a dynamic platform for exchanging current trends, developments, and new product ideas. It provided an excellent opportunity for colleagues from various departments to engage in meaningful conversations with our suppliers.   The highlight of the day was the Break-Out Sessions, organized by some of our suppliers. These sessions allowed them to showcase their companies, product portfolios, and innovative new products and ideas.   We are thrilled to have facilitated this event, fostering deeper connections and inspiring collaboration for future innovations.  #MyMerz  #SupplierInnovationDay  #Collaboration  #Innovation  #StrategicSourcing  #MerzEvents

🌞 Merz Summer Celebration at FIZ Frankfurt! 🎉 Our recent "Sommerfest" at FIZ Frankfurt Biotechnology Innovation Center was a fantastic celebration, bringing together 500 (!) employees from across the Merz businesses for an evening of fun and games. After a warm welcome from Andreas Meyer, representative of the Shareholder Family, and Hans Jörg Bergler, Managing Director, the focus turned to the celebration's theme of sport and employee well-being. Lots was on offer with archery, table-tennis, the Euros game, Foosball and the very competitive light-up reaction-timing wall! What's more, to ensure that people stay active even after the summer festival, there were sports bags with yo-yos, frisbees, jump ropes and shower gels from Merz Lifecare for everyone to take home.

🏃♂️🏃♀️ Team Spirit at the 30th JP Morgan Corporate Run in Frankfurt! 🌟 On a cloudy day like today, we like to look back at earlier in the summer where Merz runners showcased incredible team spirit at the 30th JP Morgan Corporate Challenge in Frankfurt. This year, 190 Merz employees united to conquer the 5.6 km course through the city center, a significant increase from last year’s 125 participants. But the event was more than just a run; it was a celebration of camaraderie and joy. The energy continued well into the night with a gathering in the courtyard of our main building, complete with DJ and barbeque! It was a fantastic demonstration of why enthusiasm and team spirit are what make Merz a great place to be. The photos speak for themselves! Here’s to more miles, more smiles, and more shared moments! 🎉 #MyMerz #TeamSpirit #JPMorganCorporateRun #MerzEvents

Inspiring the Next Generation at Merz! 💼👧👦 At Merz, we're passionate about shaping the future sustainably and encouraging young innovative minds. That's why we were thrilled to participate in Girls' and Boys' Day again this year, dedicated to giving children from the 5th grade and up their first taste of the professional world. Girls' and Boys' Day isn't just about exploring career options—it's about breaking down barriers and showing all children that every field is open to them, regardless of gender. We had a blast hosting a range of exciting activities, from diving into the fascinating world of DNA to exploring the colourful realm of cosmetics. Our young participants even got hands-on with coding robots and learned the essentials of firefighting! 🧬💄🤖🔥 It was a truly successful day, filled with inspired kids eager to explore their potential futures. Here's to a future where every child can dream big and achieve even bigger! 🚀 #FutureLeaders #GirlsAndBoysDay #InspiringTheNextGeneration #MyMerz #PersistInInnovation
