Berger on expansion course with NORD Holding as the new majority shareholder
01.08.2013
A. Berger GmbH's growth rate is to be maintained and strengthened in the coming months and years through consistent expansion of range and sales. The highest quality, delivery and service to customers are at the core of this. One major component is the US subsidiary founded in 2010 in Los Angeles California which has steadily increased its position in the growing digital printing market.The strong Berger brand has established itself in the US market after only two years.
The previous owner Diethelm Schüssler confidently passes the healthy business onto NORD Holding and the new Managing Directors Marc Nitsche and Gerrit Rauch, both active for years in management at Berger, and now, together with NORD Holding, shareholders. "We are pleased to have found with NORD Holding a long-term investor who works in partnership and speaks our language", said the new managing directors. Everything remains as good as ever for both the customers as well as for the employees at the two sites.
