I briefly met Hans Liebherr in 1965. Later through my position with an Irish airline had many occasions to see and experience his first investments in Killarney, Ireland I.e the new crane factory which has since expanded many times and his new venture into tourism with the opening of the Europe Hotel on Lough Leane, Killarney. Many years later with my own company did decades of business with Liebherr hotel side of their company and can only praise them totally for the professionalism. Had the Honour of sharing a table with my wife aside Dr. Isola Liebherr and family at a Gala Anniversity Event some years ago in Killarney. May this great company continue to be very successful in the future
All his cranes...tower as well as crawler and ring crane patents and designs have now been stolen and copied down to the littlest nut and bolt by the Chinese as you no doubt know by now. The Chinese have absolutely no respect for western patents or copyright.
I was managing director at KCT, Khorfakkan Container Terminal and we held for many years the world-record in efficiency of container-terminals, - only thanks to close cooperation with Killarney LLC. Best cranes for ever. Thank you very much again Dr. W. Liebherr and Ms. Isolde Liebherr for your fantastic support. Esquire Pat O´Leary in Killarney , - one of the best engineers in port handling facilities for ever. - the God of Gantries!
My first Lego set was the Liebherr 9800 excavator, about 4000 pieces & app control, that started a expensive hobby & over 180 sets later its still one of my favorites
I worked for 24 years in an advertising agency for Liebherr and visited sometimes their events. The workers were remarkable proud of their company and Liebherr is famous for allways take over their apprentices, accept for one very bad year in history!
Greetings, one of the best mechanical construction manufacturing companies on the Planet. Their customer support and overall company is good. Thank you for highlighting this manufacturer.
Amazing how Liebherr has managed to flourish with many different family members working together to control the company. Hans was obviously a visionary. My grandfather's name was Hans.
Every amazing product begins with an amazing person! The world owes Germany a great deal of gratitude for the numerous incredible engineered products it has provided. From the modern printing press to the automobile, diesel engine, programmable computer, petrochemical processing, rockets, and much more! Having the opportunity to work with Germans in Trinidad as a teenage engineering technician was undoubtedly the best experience for my friends and me. We will always be grateful for adopting the culture of efficiency, punctuality, attention to detail, and consistently delivering the highest quality at all times, from our German supervisors and mentors. Thank you!
When I was a little boy, in about 1960 or so, I got a toy crane or excavator. Yellow with the Liebherr logo on it. Never knew what it meant until years later when I started seeing Tower cranes in the city with that name on them.
The book "the liebherr story" is not a book of business practices and is not written by Dr Leibherr. It is a stoy about leibherrs growth written by a journalist, Tom Foley.
Very impressive story, very well researched and presented, thank you very much! As another interesting side note: The huge Chinese company Haier was founded as a joint venture with Liebherr, and still owes its name to the kinda Chinese pronunciation of the "herr"-part of Liebherr.
A mentally broke man can neither organize his family nor his business. I think his greatest legacy is multiplying himself by being a great head of family and instillimg the professionalism into his children.
His greatest contribution is that his beloved family continue to develop, improve and expand the company he created, and they do so building on his ideals, innovation and inventiveness!
Hans Liebherr can only be compared with the greatest, entrepreneurs like Jack Welsh from GE, Marcel Dassault, and Elon Musk. Geniuses in technology, and entrepreneurship.
I realise that geography is not a strong point on some continents but you heard it here first GERMANY is in Europe. (6:00) A basically very intersting video spoilt some what by many errors.
Hydrogen Engine for Excavators..interesting..Move over Caterpillar...not quite yet..but it rivals CAT in Shear Toughness...and the love of the color YELLOW..
I'm a crane operator and I also train and assess new operators, and riggers. The best cranes I've ever worked with by a country mile are Liebherr. You might as well off-load anything else and buy liebherr. Because whatever you spend on initial capital you will make up on low maintenance costs and idiot proof operator systems. Second to none!

Soon or later it would disappear

Typical Irish butt kissing whenever it comes to money in Ireland.
Wonderful account…he seems to have been great man
A friend of mine works for the company and they really are an excellent company to work for. They really care about their employees.

This company is the real deal in innovation and business development and continuity... I am inspired!

A company that truly moves the world forward.
Unbelievable Hans Liebherr we bow his work and passion I love This vedio
What a web he did weave .
That's a remarkable story. That's got to one of the biggest family businesses out there.
When I was a little boy, in about 1960 or so, I got a toy crane or excavator. Yellow with the Liebherr logo on it. Never knew what it meant until years later when I started seeing Tower cranes in the city with that name on them.
Useful insight into an important industrial group
Thank you for sharing this useful video message

Excellent! Video Message
Cooool. Thanks for the viddy!!
I worked at big apartment building sites & most times Liebherr crane trucks hoisted the roof trusses & roofing material

Tom Foley is not a journalist, he was HR manager in Liebherr Killarney.
Amazing Company !
Thank u to ASHEVILLE CONSTRUCTION 🚧
I saw their Fridges..Having removable sliding shelves in Fridges makes sense...the back of most fridges are tough to access.
I so wanted the Lego crane that was based off a Leihber crane when I was a kid!
Nice!
Genius! Video Message
Amazing! Video Message

Glad you liked it
ich bin fast sprachlos. eine sehr tolle wahre geschichte, die anscheinend immer weiter geht.
Sie wissen, wie es geht, die Geschichte lügt nicht
Excellent voice recording skills

I didn’t realize how big they’re.
That never ending fairy tail! One man did all these achievements! Did he own his own bank?
Banks become friends . He was probably a board member
the liebherr 500 ton crane is a true beast

Liebherr
What a special name also
If you build machines which build other machines used for end products for consumers, you will never go out of business even if you intend to
Great job
Excellent voice dubbing skills
The tower crane invention is the biggest innovation. 😊
Interesting company
I have no need for a crane an excavator ‘but’ I made sure I had a fridge and freezer, best on the market regardless of price, love this company.
Excellent presentation
One of his greatest invention is the hydraulic transmission .
I had no idea Sean Connery owned this
So am i wrong or did i hear he was fighting for Germany in WW2?
Was looking for this comment
He was born in Germany, he was a German man. What do you think? Who else would he fight for?
Correction:
At 6:35 you give the impression that Killarney is in Britain .
Killarney is in Republic of Ireland and not Britain .
Big mistake 😮
The images are not of Killarney, but rather cork port, showing the loading of new dock cranes for export to Scotland and to Germany.
Iran, Iraq
Killarney isn’t in Britain! Try Ireland
At 9.33 min this shows 4 slides of machinery from CAT and other brands???

Hans Liebherr can only be compared with the greatest, entrepreneurs like Jack Welsh from GE, Marcel Dassault, and Elon Musk. Geniuses in technology, and entrepreneurship.
Elan Musk we can say is our version of this man
You sir, are talking bollocks!
I realise that geography is not a strong point on some continents but you heard it here first GERMANY is in Europe. (6:00) A basically very intersting video spoilt some what by many errors.
I had never heard of WW11 called the Russian/German war either?
Who was the criminal contractor in the First Jack Reacher movie? Liebherr 😂
Never heard of a liebherr refridgerator.
At 10.45 you see a tadano crane
La lecture & la liseuse.
Hydrogen Engine for Excavators..interesting..Move over Caterpillar...not quite yet..but it rivals CAT in Shear Toughness...and the love of the color YELLOW..
Big balls
Big Fan of Germans!!
Killarney In southern Ireland not uk
Dang the guy on the thumbnail looks an awful lot like George Clooney

Sounds like Elon Musk , a visionary 😊
with the germans humanity can evolve quickly
The refrigerator was invented by an Australian...correct me if I'm wrong google

How is this insane? It's a great story and very well told, but insane?
❤️🇱🇨!!!
German-Soviet war is called WWII. And that dude was a NoTSee.
Yes... and?
Soldier along with millions of others.
Almost makes you wonder, “where did globalism go wrong…”?🤔😂
German Soviet war? Never heard it said that way. It was called World War Two. Looks like he was a combatant on the Nazi side of the war
I guess he didn’t know anything back then ?
Shows you. Not matter which side of the battle line you find yourself, you're Not precluded from being a winner 🥇.
Their were Nazis and German soldiers. Looks like he was a soldier.
I'm sure he was an only child with no sisters, right?
