It was established in Linz, Austria in 1986. Its founder is Philip Zepter, an entrepreneur and emigrant from Yugoslavia (today's Serbia). Due to this business he has become one of the richest Serbians with a net worth estimated at 5 billion US$. Today he resides in Monaco.

Development

Zepter International began distributing worldwide stainless steel cookware and tableware accessories, manufactured in its own plant in Milan, Italy. In 1996, Zepter Group acquired two companies, based in Switzerland, and thus branched out into the markets of:

  • light therapy medical devices - by the purchase of Bioptron AG, Wollerau;
  • cosmetics - through Intercosmetica Neuchâtel SA, Neuchâtel.
  • After these investments the company's headquarters moved to Switzerland. Later on Zepter Finance Holding AG was established, providing services in the fields of private pensions, health care, insurance and property.

    Market Positioning and Recognition

    Zepter products are sold in more than forty countries where Zepter mainly searches for Business Managers that should organize the product demonstrations and convince people to buy Zepter products.
