00:00:43.079 --> 00:00:45.320
Are you ready for a remarkable story?

2
00:00:45.960 --> 00:00:47.719
It starts in 1850.

3
00:00:49.599 --> 00:00:51.360
When Johann Fassmer establishes

4
00:00:51.599 --> 00:00:52.719
his small boat building

5
00:00:52.719 --> 00:00:54.360
workshop in Bardenfleth,

6
00:00:55.360 --> 00:00:57.039
Germany's 1848 revolution

7
00:00:57.039 --> 00:00:58.679
has just come to an end.

8
00:00:59.639 --> 00:01:00.199
While Napoleon

9
00:01:00.199 --> 00:01:02.519
Bonaparte's nephew rules in France,

10
00:01:03.360 --> 00:01:05.039
99% of the companies we know

11
00:01:05.039 --> 00:01:07.719
today do not exist back then,

12
00:01:08.159 --> 00:01:10.400
apart from a few, a very few.

13
00:01:11.599 --> 00:01:12.679
This is where the

14
00:01:12.679 --> 00:01:14.800
extraordinary story of Fassmer begins,

15
00:01:15.559 --> 00:01:17.599
with a man named Johann Fassmer,

16
00:01:18.079 --> 00:01:19.239
who took the helm and set

17
00:01:19.239 --> 00:01:20.519
something big in motion.

18
00:01:21.079 --> 00:01:22.440
Did he have any idea what

19
00:01:22.440 --> 00:01:23.559
his legacy would become?

20
00:01:24.119 --> 00:01:26.559
Across years, generations, centuries,

21
00:01:26.960 --> 00:01:30.280
up to the present day, 175 years later.

22
00:01:30.960 --> 00:01:31.599
Today, the fifth

23
00:01:31.599 --> 00:01:33.199
generation of the Fassmer family

24
00:01:33.559 --> 00:01:36.719
is at the helm, 175 years.

25
00:01:37.880 --> 00:01:39.000
History becomes experience,

26
00:01:39.559 --> 00:01:41.119
experience becomes expertise,

27
00:01:41.840 --> 00:01:43.880
and expertise becomes excellence.

28
00:01:46.440 --> 00:01:48.199
Driven by innovation, sustainability,

29
00:01:48.559 --> 00:01:49.880
and unwavering reliability,

30
00:01:50.280 --> 00:01:52.039
and with more than 2,000 employees at

31
00:01:52.039 --> 00:01:53.280
five global locations,

32
00:01:53.639 --> 00:01:56.280
we are leaders in shipbuilding.

33
00:01:57.760 --> 00:01:59.519
Boats,

34
00:01:59.679 --> 00:02:02.159
defence,

35
00:02:02.360 --> 00:02:03.079
composites

36
00:02:03.239 --> 00:02:05.159
 and service.

37
00:02:05.800 --> 00:02:08.480
We are the safe harbor for your project,

38
00:02:08.800 --> 00:02:10.039
no matter the size.

39
00:02:10.679 --> 00:02:13.320
And yes, we're still improving every day,

40
00:02:14.199 --> 00:02:15.079

00:02:15.079 --> 00:02:16.719

just as we've done

43
00:02:17.960 --> 00:02:20.599
for the past 175 years.

44
00:02:21.880 --> 00:02:23.039
Together with all of you,

45
00:02:23.559 --> 00:02:26.079
our customers, partners, and employees,

46
00:02:26.880 --> 00:02:27.679
we look forward to

47

continuing the journey.

48
00:02:29.320 --> 00:02:32.079
So bring on the next 175 years.

49
00:02:37.880 --> 00:02:38.880
And cast off.
