Expanding in Zehdenick: Reducing distances by
concentrating production in one place



We built a new hall on our trippen manufacturing campus and brought the remaining line produced in Italy to Zehdenick. Having everything in one house reduced our footprint concerning delivery ways.



"There were several reasons to bring everything together in the Zehdenick production. All our little Italian family productions had big challenges because their children did not want to continue the family business.”
 

– Michael Oehler, CEO
 



Our collection got more and more diverse, with smaller quantities but more product lines, so it needed more training for the workers. We solved these problems by having all in Zehdenick and always having the chance to be in production.
