History
History
Wilhelm Lorch founded the publishing house in Stuttgart in September 1946 under the name "Neuer Fachverlag". It was not until 1948 when it moved to Frankfurt that the publishing company was renamed "Deutscher Fachverlag". The first specialist periodical was released in the founding year: TextilWirtschaft. Since then, dfv has continuously expanded its range of publications and enlarged it by means of numerous start-ups, purchases and shareholdings. Today the publishing group has a presence in six countries and distributes its products worldwide.

The Deutsche Fachverlag has initiated three industry-specific foundations: in 1988 the Wilhelm-Lorch-Stiftung, the foundation Goldener Zuckerhut in 1990 and the HORIZONT-Stiftung in 2006. They are to serve as youth development foundations and are there to honour special achievements of young talents in the textile- and food industry as well as the communications and agency business.
