In 1972 Günther Fielmann established the first Fielmann store in Cuxhaven, Lower Saxony. In 1981, Fielmann negotiated an agreement with the Esens statutory health insurance company, which allowed a larger selection of frames to be added to the portfolio for patients with insurance coverage.[4]
Fielmann has been listed on the German stock exchange since 1994.[5] Its stock indexing advanced from a listing in the SDAX (small and medium-sized companies) to MDAX on 6 January 2009,[6] but was relegated to SDAX in December 2019.[7]
The non-profit Fielmann-Akademie was established by the company in 2001. Located in Plön Castle, Schleswig-Holstein it is a training centre for optometrists since 2002.[8]
Since 2019, Marc Fielmann has been the sole CEO of the company, succeeding his father Günther Fielmann.[9]
