Aluproff A/S

Historien om Aluproff
Historien om Aluproff starter helt tilbage i 1949. Dengang hed firmaet kun Stila, som var et sammentræk af de to efternavne på stifterne af firmaet; “Stilling” og “Larsen” STI-LA. De to startede i en kælder, hvor de om dagen gik fra hus til hus og solgte persienner, som de så producerede i kælderen om natten. Stila blev overtaget helt af Preben Stilling-Petersen, som desværre døde i en tidlig alder i 1970. Hans tre sønner overtog derefter virksomheden, hvor også brødrenes mor og tante trådte til og hjalp. Ole Stilling-Petersen, som er den ældste, ankom i 1970, Anders Stilling-Petersen kom til i 1973 og Henrik Stilling-Løfbjerg kom i 1982. I de tidligere år fungerede brødrenes onkel, Rudi Stilling-Petersen som bestyrelsesformand. Flere af familiens medlemmer, har været ansat i firmaet igennem årene.
Herunder er en kort kronologisk gennemgang af, hvad der er sket i virksomheden helt frem til i dag, hvor virksomheden er delt i to – Stila og Aluproff.

Fra det nyvalgte medlem Henrik Spandet lyder det sådan her:

Med en erhvervsorganisations som Dansk Erhverv i ryggen, og de samarbejdspartnere vi har i branchen, så er alle betingelser til stede for, at vi i fællesskab kan få skabt nogle gode rammebetingelser. Den store danske talentmasse på modeområdet skal også i endnu højere grad kunne omsættes til succes på eksportmarkederne, og det skal vi hjælpe med.”
