Schreiner

What Schreiner does

The Fachverband Schreinerhandwerk Bayern, operating under the consumer-facing brand Schreiner (schreiner.de), is the official Landesinnungsverband — the state-level guild association — for the carpentry and joinery trade in Bavaria, Germany. It is constituted as a private-law entity (juristische Person des privaten Rechts) under §80 of the German Handwerksordnung, with supervisory oversight from the Bavarian State Ministry for Economic Affairs. The organization coordinates a network of roughly 55 regional Innungen (guilds) representing approximately 3,000 carpentry and joinery businesses (Innungsbetriebe) across Bavaria, and operates a wholly-owned commercial subsidiary, Schreinerservice Bayern GmbH (Munich, HRB 111625), which runs the member shop, merchandise, and operational services.

Its core offerings span member-business support, professional training, and consumer-facing brand promotion. Member services include the Schreinerakademie continuing-education platform, the Schreinersuche directory for consumer referrals, the Betriebsbörse business-succession exchange, a Stellenbörse job board, classifieds (Kleinanzeigen), occupational-safety advisory (AsS), legal and economic consulting, and a downloadable reference-sheet library. Commercial offerings include customized work clothing (Berufskleidung) and member-shop supplies. The association's commercial and policy stack is built on the schreiner.de website, with no disclosed proprietary technology, no AI/ML capability, and no public-facing API; integrations, AI modalities, and product launches are absent from the source data.

The revenue model is membership-dues-driven, supplemented by Schreinerservice Bayern GmbH's shop and service revenues and by member purchasing power routed through the framework agreement with BAMAKA AG. Annual membership fees are paid by Innungsbetriebe, with discounted rates on services, training, clothing, and supplies available to members; pricing is not publicly disclosed for non-members. The association is led by President Bernhard Daxenberger and Managing Director Oliver Dawid, who together oversee a headquarters staff of 11-50 at Fürstenrieder Str. 250, Munich, and a marketing footprint spanning YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, the MEIN SCHREINER consumer image campaign, the MASSSTAB customer magazine, and major trade-fair participation (HOLZ-HANDWERK, Heim+Handwerk) alongside competitions such as Die Gute Form and the state-co-sponsored Holz aus Bayern.

Scale indicators1 record

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• Zentralverband des Deutschen Handwerks (ZDH): The umbrella confederation of German skilled crafts in Berlin, representing all Handwerk trades nationally. Comparable as the overarching trade-association structure within which the Fachverband operates, providing policy advocacy and cross-trade coordination at federal level.

Others

• Handwerkskammer für München und Oberbayern: The local Chamber of Crafts for Munich and Upper Bavaria, with statutory oversight of all Handwerk trades including carpentry. Comparable as a related institutional partner in Bavaria's Handwerk ecosystem, but with broader trade scope and public-law status rather than voluntary guild membership.

Emerging players

• Holzbau Deutschland: The German federal association for timber construction (Zimmererhandwerk), covering carpentry's structural building counterpart. Comparable as a neighboring Handwerk trade association with similar guild structure, training focus, and member services, but serving the timber-construction sub-craft rather than cabinetmaking/joinery.

Direct peers

• Tischler + Schreiner Deutschland: The national carpentry and joinery trade federation (formerly Bundesverband Holz und Kunststoff / BHKH) for Tischler/Schreiner across Germany. Directly comparable as the federal-level counterpart trade association serving the same craft, with broader geographic scope and federal advocacy functions.
