History

It was founded in 1875 and by 1880 had grown to 280 employees. When the founder Jacques Schiesser died from heart failure in 1913, the company already employed 1200 people, and it has since worked itself into a global brand.[3] Since 2011, Schiesser has been owned by the Israeli corporation Delta Galil.

gollark: The inevitable end point of "no growth/no new stuff/etc" is just "society runs through all available resources, can't get more, dies out" or maybe "natural disaster occurs and limited economic/technological resources don't allow dealing with it well".
gollark: This is why I don't like the "zero-growth" people, as well as the various other reasons.
