Although we correspond with Bremen and Berlin, or London and Lisbon, and San Francisco and Shanghai, we ourselves have a lesserknown address: Löhne. Never having heard of it would be understandable. This has been our home, in eastern Westphalia, since 1884 (2009 will mark 125 years of our enterprise) and we value it now more than ever. Living here may not be very exciting, but it makes our work calmer, clearer and more focused. Here reliability is important - even at the local bakery. In short, there exists an atmosphere in which a sound company can thrive.

Our colleagues are also rooted in this region and possess similar traits. They do not like to change their place of work, and certainly not their attitude towards it.

All this together makes Löhne a place that perfectly fits our agenda.
