Handrich construction center

What Handrich construction center does

Handrich construction center, operating under the legal name H&H Handrich Moderner Baubedarf GmbH, is a privately held German building-materials and construction-supply retailer headquartered in Neustadt, Rhineland-Palatinate. The company runs six physical branch locations across the Rhineland-Palatinate and Baden-Württemberg regions (Neustadt, Alsheim, Frankenthal, Grünstadt, Waghäusel/Wiesental, and Mannheim — the last operated under the Luschka & Wagenmann trade name) and is managed by three Geschäftsführer: Thorsten Roth, Ulrich Brand, and Felix Ziegler.

The business is organized around two core divisions. Handrich Baustoffe is the primary building-materials division, offering a comprehensive category-spanning assortment that includes tiles and floor coverings, civil engineering (Tiefbau), raw and high-rise construction, drywall, plaster and paint, roofing, insulation, and garden/landscape construction, supported by an on-site Fachmarkt (professional trade market) carrying tools, machines, work-safety equipment, and building chemicals. Handrich Living is a secondary sub-brand offering furniture, kitchen, outdoor, and textile home accessories. The company supplements branch retail with an owned specialized-vehicle delivery fleet that delivers materials directly to construction sites, and with a small digital surface consisting of a website, an Online-Fördermittelservice (national subsidy-program finder), Instagram and Facebook profiles, and a Brevo-powered email newsletter.

Handrich generates revenue through one-time sales of physical goods (building materials and furniture) across both B2B (professional contractors, tilers, civil engineers, roofers, painters, landscapers) and B2C (private homeowners and DIY) channels, with no subscription, SaaS, or recurring revenue component. Distribution is concentrated on its six branches within a regional footprint, and the company is a member of the Eurobaustoff purchasing group (Fachgruppe Tiefbau), which provides cooperative procurement access to civil-engineering product lines. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; transactions are processed via in-store consultation and quotation.
