OLYMP: Stefan Klieber takes charge of Corporate Fashion & Private Label

Andreas Telahr is retiring after more than 30 years with the fashion manufacturer

OLYMP Bezner KG, based in Bietigheim-Bissingen (Ludwigsburg district, Baden-Württemberg, Germany), is making staffing changes in its Corporate Fashion and Private Label divisions. Andreas Telahr, OLYMP’s long-standing Head of Corporate Fashion, is bringing his career to a close at the end of 2026 after more than three decades with the company. He will be succeeded by sales expert Stefan Klieber, who will in future be responsible for the Corporate Fashion and Private Label business units at the fashion brand.

Peter Hoever, OLYMP’s Managing Director for Sales, says: “What Andreas Telahr has achieved for OLYMP during his almost 31 years with the company deserves the utmost respect. With great dedication, a high level of professional expertise and exceptional loyalty, he has made a significant contribution to OLYMP’s successful international positioning also in the field of high-quality corporate fashion. We would like to extend our profound thanks to him for his outstanding achievements. We are also very pleased to be able to fill this key position straightaway – with Stefan Klieber as Head of Corporate Fashion and Private Label. With him at the helm, we will continue to pursue our chosen course and strengthen the strategic focus of both these divisions.”

Andreas Telahr, 64, who holds a degree in business administration, has his professional roots in textile production. When he began his career at OLYMP over 30 years ago in 1996, his remit initially covered the areas of warehousing, logistics and customer service. As the company continued to grow, and opened up its new corporate fashion business line, his responsibilities increasingly focused on this dynamically growing segment, which he single-mindedly built up and expanded. In this way, he also established OLYMP in the marketplace as a long-standing supplier of work and uniform shirts and blouses. In addition to numerous corporate clients, public authorities at federal, state and local levels (including the German Armed Forces, the police, the judiciary and the fire service), as well as airlines, textile service providers and finishing companies, now also rely on OLYMP’s professional workwear. Furthermore, Andreas Telahr played a leading role in establishing OLYMP internationally as a dependable partner for contemporary, high-quality and durable corporate fashion. Until recently, he was also responsible for after-sales service.

Stefan Klieber, 45, who holds a degree in sports economics, has 18 years’ experience in the fields of strategic management, sales, brand and product management, as well as procurement and sourcing in the fashion and footwear industry. He joins the company from RUN Lifewear GmbH in Göppingen (Baden-Württemberg), which he cofounded. There, in his role as managing director, he was responsible for building up its private-label business. Furthermore, Stefan Klieber is the initiator and codeveloper of the company’s two in-house brands “mundart”, a label for sustainable footwear and clothing, and “Revo”, a brand for comfortable sandals featuring anatomical footbeds. His previous professional roles include brand management at Hugo Boss AG in Metzingen (Baden-Württemberg) and project management at the sports goods manufacturer adidas AG in Herzogenaurach (Bavaria).

OLYMP Bezner KG, based in Bietigheim-Bissingen near Stuttgart, is the market leader for shirts in Germany and one of Europe’s leading shirt brands. In addition, its high-quality clothing range – which includes business, casual and full-dress shirts, knitwear, sweatwear, trousers, outerwear and accessories – is sold in over 40 countries worldwide. In the corporate fashion sector, women’s blouses also form part of its extended product range.
