2026 Retirement Celebration – The Transition to a New Chapter in Life

On October 22, 2026, the Galliker family celebrated this special milestone together with 28 soon-to-be retirees and their partners at the charming Mangerie in Egolzwil. A total of 42 employees will be entering their well-deserved retirement in 2026—and they were all warmly invited to this evening’s event.

During the lively conversations, it was clear just how much collective expertise, valuable life experience, and passion for Galliker had come together that evening. Esther Studer, along with Rolf and Peter Galliker, thanked and honored the retiring employees for their outstanding contributions.

In addition to the festive retrospective on their past professional careers, the guests were treated to culinary delights by the Mangerie team. Magician Frank Borton wowed the crowd with his astonishing magic tricks, while our chauffeur, Donat Schmidli, provided the perfect musical atmosphere as a one-man party band. Another highlight was the traditional “Kilbi-Drehen,” where guests could win Magenbrot, gingerbread hearts, and Grittibänze of all kinds.

While many of our newly retired colleagues are now devoting themselves to their hobbies, fulfilling long-cherished wishes, or simply enjoying their newfound free time, we’re pleased that a few of them will continue to work for the company on a part-time basis.

We thank our new retirees from the bottom of our hearts for their many years of service and wish them the best of health, much joy, and countless wonderful memories of their time at Galliker as they embark on this new chapter of their lives!
