In the early 2000s, Daniela Herz-Schnoekel owned 19% of Tchibo, her brother Günter 20,6%.[2] In 2002, the pair pooled their Tchibo shares in the holding company Mayfair.[3] 2003, these three family members bought out Herz-Schnoekel and her brother, Günter Herz's 40% stake. Tchibo is 100% owned by three members of the Herz family, Herz-Schnoekel's mother and two of her brothers, Michael and Wolfgang Herz.
