From local shop to national retailer
Mindfactory started in Wilhelmshaven in 1996. We grew from a local hardware vendor into one of Germany's largest online shops for PC components. In 2022 we employed about 111 people and reported €302.7 million in annual sales, continuing a long growth trajectory in the German PC hardware market.
On 31 July 2025 Mindfactory became part of the Heise Gruppe, a German media and technology company. We now operate as heise mindfactory GmbH, managed by Ansgar Heise and Marcel Kirchner. Our headquarters and warehouse remain at Humboldstrasse 5 in Wilhelmshaven.
Our warehouse spans roughly 16,000 square meters. In 2018 we shipped around 25,000 parcels per week. We stock current graphics cards—NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090, RTX 5080, RTX 5070 Ti, AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT and other models—alongside gaming PCs, monitors, SSDs, mainboards, processors, power supplies, coolers and cases.
