The team around FRANKENWOLLE
In the team, Birgit is our “passionate knitter” and wool expert with over 17 years of experience in the wool business. Alex is responsible for social media and inquiries from the internet. Kai is the organizer and the one in charge of commercial matters. Not to forget the many little helpers in the background supporting FRANKENWOLLE.

Birgit is a true-born Franconian from Lower Franconia and has been a passionate knitter for over 50 years. She enthusiastically ran her own wool shop, Wolle Pur, in Bamberg for over 17 years and is definitely the “wool lady” in our team.

Alex (1974)
Alex originally comes from beautiful Westphalia and became a resident of Bamberg in 2007. At FRANKENWOLLE, she is responsible for our social media activities and communication with customers from the internet.
Our shepherds
David (1996) und Pascal (1992)
David and Pascal are two of the last approximately 70 professional shepherds in Bavaria. After the death of Mike, they took over the modern agricultural operation with their mother, Angelika, and have further expanded it. The brothers are responsible for the well-being of the sheep in the pasture, in the barn, and on the farm.
