Future Day 2026 at Sport-Thieme
On Future Day last Thursday, April 23, we welcomed a total of 28 students aged 10 to 15 across two Sport-Thieme locations. Together, we gave them exciting insights into different areas of our company. For us, this day is a valuable contribution to career orientation for young people in the region, and every year it remains a truly rewarding experience.
Premiere in Haldensleben
This year marked the first time Future Day took place at our Haldensleben site. At our logistics center, the students discovered how around 450,000 parcels are processed and shipped to our customers each year across 26,500 square meters.
Future Day was not just about observing. The students got actively involved. They explored the trainee role of a warehouse logistics specialist, both in theory and in practice, gained insight into commercial tasks within logistics, and joined a guided warehouse tour. A small product course added variety, featuring activities such as hobby horsing and a pallet truck game.
A big thank you to our entire logistics team for making this premiere a success, especially Antonia, Nicole, Samira, Steven, and Willem for their planning and execution.
Students explore Sport-Thieme in Grasleben
Our Grasleben location also offered a varied program. The morning started with an interactive company presentation led by our HR trainee Finja and trainee Jonathan. They introduced not only the company but also our training opportunities. Estimation questions encouraged participation right from the start and kept the group engaged.
Afterwards, supported by our trainees Steffi and Sarah, the students set off on a scavenger hunt through the company in small groups. This playful approach gave them further insights into different departments. Highlights included a tour followed by a quiz about our wood production, as well as hands-on sports activities like cornhole. We would also like to thank Finja, Jonathan, Niko, Sarah, and Steffi for their dedicated organization and support.
Our teams in Grasleben and Haldensleben are already looking forward to Future Day 2027. Maybe you will be joining us next time.
