Textile Solutions Group (TSG) has appointed Anton Hofmeier as Group CEO, effective September 1, 2025.

With over 20 years of leadership experience in B2B enterprise software, he brings strong expertise in digital transformation, go-to-market strategy, and M&A integration across manufacturing and industrial sectors.

Backed by Elvaston, TSG sharpens its ambition to become the textile industry’s fully integrated digital backbone. For customers, this leadership appointment reinforces long-term stability, strategic growth, and continued investment in textile-focused innovation.

Customers benefit from:

• A strengthened strategic direction focused exclusively on textile manufacturing
• Continued investment in integrated ERP, MES, and CAD capabilities
• Greater platform connectivity across design, planning, and shop floor automation

Leadership Perspective

Anton Hofmeier brings over two decades of experience in enterprise software, helping industrial organizations scale, integrate, and transform their operations.

With a background in electronic engineering, he has consistently focused on connecting digital systems with physical production environments — particularly in manufacturing execution and shop floor automation.

“What makes TSG unique is that we go both broader and deeper than anyone else. We cover every key step of textile production, from design and planning to shop floor automation, and we do it with solutions built specifically for this industry. Our vision is to become the digital backbone of global textile manufacturing.”

Under his leadership, TSG aims to strengthen the integration of its specialized companies and solutions — spanning CAD, ERP, and MES — into a connected, cohesive digital ecosystem serving the textile value chain from fiber to finished garment.

Strategic Impact for the Textile Industry

The textile market is undergoing structural transformation. Manufacturers face rising energy and material costs, increasing ESG requirements, compressed fashion cycles, and global volatility. At the same time, many operations still rely on fragmented systems and manual processes.

TSG’s strategy under Hofmeier’s leadership focuses on simplifying this complexity through a vertically integrated, textile-native platform. By aligning products, teams, and partners around a unified digital vision, the Group aims to help manufacturers plan smarter, operate leaner, and grow with confidence.

“My job as CEO is to listen to our customers, learn from our teams, and help unlock the full power of this group — aligning our products, our people, and our partners around one shared purpose: making textile manufacturing better, together.”

Textile Solutions Group remains committed to building the most complete and scalable digital environment for textile production — delivering measurable value across the entire manufacturing lifecycle while supporting sustainable, long-term industry growth.
