MT-Propeller - one of Bavaria's strongest midsized companies in 2026
MT-Propeller was recognized as one of Bavaria's strongest midsized companies in 2026.

Bavaria, one of Germany's strongest economic regions, has once again recognized the top-performing midsized companies.
 
In the latest analysis by the SZ Institute, MT-Propeller Entwicklung GmbH ranked 8th, placing it among the top 10.
The criteria of the analysis included current information on revenue and the number of employees for 2024 and 2025, as well as the creditworthiness. After this initial screening, only 456 companies remained.
Of these 456 small and midsized Bavarian companies, those were selected that had recently demonstrated strong economic growth.
 
The MT-Propeller Group is pleased to be among the 10 strongest Bavarian midsized companies, as this demonstrates that its commitment to continuous development and innovation is paying off.
