It was inventiveness and the pioneering spirit that drove the founder of
the company, Josef Fischer Sr, to start up his own business in
1924. Sledges and handcarts were made in the first two years and,
despite all the difficulties he faced, he later realized his vision of
the largest ski manufacturing company in the world.This entrepreneurial
spirit and the wealth of ideas still remain the forces that drive the
people at Fischer in their daily work - developing, marketing and
selling first-class sports equipment.
