Sándor Stux
Sándor Stux was born in 1877 in a family of grain merchants.
After completing his studies, he joined the First Budapest Steam Mill Company in 1892. From 1906 he worked at the Pesti Molnár and Sütők Steam Mill. When the First Budapest Steam Mill Joint Stock Company took over the Pesti Molnars and Sütők Steam Mill Joint Stock Company and the position of its director became vacant, the post was offered to Sándor Stux.
It was Sándor Stux's merit to merge the mills of the company into a single concern in 1919 ("Hungarian Export Mills Syndicate") in order to develop the economic potential. It is to his credit that the company became one of the largest milling centres in the world. The company owned 5 mills in Budapest, 12 in the countryside, 12 in Yugoslavia and 2 in Romania.
In 1923 Stux resumed his activities in the First Budapest Steam Mill Joint Stock Company. In addition to his position as General Manager of the joint-stock company, he was also President of the Hungarian Capital City Milling Association.
In 1933, he was appointed Government Counsellor General as Director General. In 1938, problems arose in the operation of the mill cartel. Antal Kunder, the Minister of Trade, issued a decree specifying the share of the provincial mills in exports, which he raised from 10% to 30% (in 1938, the First Budapest Steam Mill Joint Stock Company handled 17.5% of grain exports.) According to the press, the affair played a role in Stux's resignation as President in 1938-1939.
He died on 21 December 1941, aged 65. His funeral took place on 23 December in the Kerepesi cemetery.
