Düsseldorf, December 2018 – International consultancy Cushman & Wakefield is continuing to expand in Germany, opening a new office in Düsseldorf at the end of this year, its sixth location in Germany in addition to its existing offices in Berlin, Hamburg, Frankfurt/Main, Munich, and Leipzig.

“Düsseldorf is an economically dynamic city and we see a lot of potential there,” says Yvo Postleb, Head of Cushman & Wakefield Germany. “Our expansion strategy for Germany targets sustainable growth based on opening locations to respond to market demand,” he explains, adding that the new Düsseldorf office “will allow us to offer our customers in the Rhine/Ruhr region even better consulting services and even better business solutions.”

Starting with an office agency for commercial rentals, Cushman & Wakefield plans to successively add other services from its portfolio to the new location at Schadowstraße 56 to make it a full-service site. The initial office agency set up will be carried out by experienced managers Luisa Rotthaus and Martin Höfler, with Luisa Rotthaus responsible for commercial lettings as managing partner. Both Rotthaus and Höfler come from JLL, where they successfully established a new location.
