Alexandra Schörghuber (née Stumpf; born 24 July 1958) is a prominent German businesswoman.
Personal life
Schörghuber was raised in Erlenbach am Main and Straubing after being born to a Protestant clergyman in Frankfurt. Following her secondary education, she undertook an apprenticeship as a hotel clerk and gained professional experience across Germany, Switzerland, and Bermuda. It was during this period that she met Stefan Schörghuber, who was then a junior executive at the Schörghuber Unternehmensgruppe; the couple wed on 20 July 1988.
Together, they had three children and managed an equestrian facility housing 30 horses at Gut Bohmerhof in Wackersberg. After Stefan passed away in 2008, Alexandra entered into a second marriage with Bernd Werndl in 2015.
Entrepreneur
Since December 2008, Schörghuber has held the position of chairwoman of the board of trustees as well as a board member within the Schörghuber Unternehmensgruppe based in Munich. She took over the helm of the family enterprise following the death of her husband Stefan on 25 November 2008. Her previous responsibilities included supervisory and executive roles across various family-owned ventures such as parking facilities, cable cars, and lifts in the Bavarian Oberland region, alongside one of Chile’s leading salmon farming businesses.
In March 2008, she was appointed Vice President of Arabella Hotelbetriebe AG in Switzerland and subsequently assumed leadership of Arabella Vermögensverwaltung AG located in Chur in April of the same year. Since February 2013, Schörghuber has been a member of the Administrative Advisory Board for FC Bayern München e. V., advancing to vice-chairman three years later.
Personal wealth
As of 2018, her net worth was approximated at around 4.9 billion US dollars, placing her 436th worldwide and 40th within Germany according to the Forbes rankings.
Social commitment
On 8 May 2018, Schörghuber collaborated with FC Bayern player Thomas Müller and Martina Münch-Nicolaidis to announce the creation of a "Star House," envisioned as a central resource for children and young adults grieving lost parents or close family members.
Additionally, she acts as patron for the Josef-Schörghuber-Stiftung für Münchner Kinder, a charitable foundation established by her father-in-law in 1995 that aids children from underprivileged backgrounds by facilitating their access to vacation and recreational opportunities.
