Kieser Schweiz

PR Support for Leading Specialist in Strength Training

Revitalising Kieser’s media presence in Switzerland

Starting point of a successful partnership

In 1967, the charismatic Werner Kieser founded his company, the international brand Kieser. Up to today it specializes in health-oriented, efficient strength training on self-developed and -produced machines.

Until 2017, when he retired, he had been the face of the company and always enjoyed a broad media presence in Switzerland. He then passed on his company to his former CEO, Michael Antonopoulos, who purchased Kieser with his partner Nils Planzer. A new era had begun and with the new owner being in charge, Kieser needed to find its place in the Swiss media landscape again.

With the help of Burson Switzerland, Kieser is now reinventing its media presence in Switzerland and reaching new audiences. Burson offers various topics and Kieser spokespersons to local and national Swiss media. The themes vary from health issues to corporate communications.​
