Nienstedten worried: Groth's cobbler's business is fighting to be saved!

Jens-Uwe Groth, a traditional shoemaker from Nienstedten, has experienced a serious illness in recent months that forced him to close the business he ran for over 40 years. How Kloenschnack reports, Groth was not only a craftsman, but also an institution in his district. His absence is felt painfully by many in the community.

The cobbler's shop was scheduled to close in August 2023, and while Groth was in a clinic, ongoing costs such as rent and insurance continued to amount to significant sums without generating any income. The shoemaker has been undergoing rehabilitation for over ten weeks now, hoping to be fit again soon.

Support for Jens-Uwe Groth

During this difficult time, family and friends have taken responsibility for closing the business. To support Groth, an online fundraising campaign was launched. The goal is to raise 12,000 euros to cover running costs. The campaign has already received widespread support from the region, with many people intent on giving back to Groth after he served so many in the community.

In addition to Groth's personal challenges, the closure of such a business also tears at a larger economic structure in which legal aspects must be taken into account. It is important to know that, according to Section 133 of the Conversion Act, the liabilities of the transferring entity that arose before a possible demerger are jointly and severally liable. This could result in future legal complications that could be significant for both Groth and the parties involved should claims be made as part of divisions or transfers, as detailed in Laws-on-the-Internet present.

Jens-Uwe Groth's situation shows how personal fates are often intertwined with economic and legal questions. Hopefully the community will continue to stand behind him and the fundraising campaign can provide him with the support he needs to get through this difficult time.
