Francotyp Postalia builds new production site at Wittenberge in Brandenburg
Birkenwerder, 18 February 2011. Over the next few months, the
Francotyp-Postalia Group - the full service provider for mail
communications - is to build a new, state-of-the-art production line for
the new Phoenix franking system in the Brandenburg town of Wittenberge.
The company had held many talks over previous months about the need to
build a new production line in Birkenwerder. 'The realignment of production
is a central measure for sustainably safeguarding the future of the entire
FP Group, which employs over 1,000 people worldwide,' says Hans Szymanski,
Chairman of the Management Board of Francotyp-Postalia Holding AG.
Following the unsuccessful conclusion of negotiations, a choice of several
new production locations was available. 'We chose Wittenberge as the site
for our new production line. This means that our company will continue
production activities in Brandenburg and guarantee high quality for the
global market,' says Szymanski. The mail communications specialist is
looking to employ up to 50 people at the new location in the next few
years.
In view of the impending measures, the production line in Birkenwerder is
due to close by the end of the first quarter of 2012 at the latest. The
necessary measures are intended for production only; the company's
headquarters will remain in Birkenwerder.
