First concrete pillar for the new building
The beginning of the construction work in Bissendorf was celebrated with a so-called “support festival”. In the coming months, our new company location will be built on the 20,000 square meters area.
Excavators, sparkling wine and sausages. The Schuchmann team celebrated the start of the construction work together with numerous guests. Employees of the Goldbeck construction company symbolically set the first concrete column for the production building. The 10 meter long pier had been decorated with a blue ribbon especially for this day. The size of the 12-tonne column alone gives an idea of what will be erected on the site in the coming months.
Modern workplaces, surrounded by greenery
“The new building and the relocation will enable us to tackle new challenges and to position ourselves stably for the future,” said Managing Director Torsten Schuchmann in his speech. For many employees, the support festival was the first opportunity to take a look at their “future” place of work. They were particularly impressed by the view of the nearby forest and the surrounding fields and meadows.
Well positioned for the future
“By bundling our processes at one location, we can optimize our processes and have more opportunities to develop further,” says Managing Director Torsten Schuchmann. All areas should benefit from this. Among other things, the storage area will be tripled to 1500 pallet spaces.
Above all, however, our customers will benefit – through even better service. We are already very much looking forward to developing and manufacturing aids at the new location that will make everyday life easier for children and young people with physical disabilities.
Move in by summer 2020
The buildings should be ready for occupancy within a year. After completion of the second construction phase, there will be enough space for administration, production, sales and logistics on around 9400 square meters. Schuchmann is investing a total of 10 million euros in the new location.
Our team in the UK/France is already very excited to see the new company location in person and we are already looking forward to the inauguration party next year.
