The SCHUNCK GROUP, one of the leading industrial insurance brokers in Germany, celebrated its centenary on 19 June, 2019 and launched a new promotional campaign.

SCHUNCK. Make it easy
SCHUNCK. ‘Make it easy’ was conceived together with communications agency Cyrano as part of a brand development. The campaign targets both internal and external target groups and communicates the maxim of the SCHUNCK GROUP, ‘We make the complex insurance business understandable for customers and their world easier’.

Thomas Wicke, Managing Director and Head of Sales at SCHUNCK commented: "If you take a look at the history of the company, you can see that making simple has always been part of our DNA. Making simple applies to us in two ways: Firstly, we make the complex world of insurance understandable to our customers and so make their world a bit simpler. On the other hand, as a medium-sized, owner-managed company, we are fast and flexible in our decision-making processes and make things easy instead of having to struggle with hierarchies or bureaucratic hurdles."

The central measure of the campaign is the SCHUNCK simple makers. SCHUNCK employees from different areas of the company are depicted with a photo and describe in a short statement why and what they ‘make easy’ in their daily work. Albert Schunck, Managing Partner of the SCHUNCK GROUP, explained: "With the easymakers, we are deliberately focussing on our employees. It is they who play a decisive role in the success of the SCHUNCK GROUP. That's what we're emphasising with our campaign."

SCHUNCK was founded on 19 June, 1919 in Berlin and claims to have set standards in the insurance world over the last 100 years with numerous innovations and exclusive insurance solutions and services. It claims, for example, to have started the idea of replacing ‘liability with insurance’ in the transport sector, through the Allgemeine Deutsche Spediteur Bedingungen (ADSp), in 1927.
