On Friday, May 16, POS TUNING cele­bra­ted the expan­sion of the company site with many guests and employees. In addi­tion to repre­sen­ta­ti­ves from poli­tics and the regio­nal and natio­nal economy, many part­ners, custo­mers and friends also took part in the event. The company, which was foun­ded in a garage in 1998, now has 19,000 square meters of produc­tion, logi­stics and storage space at its dispo­sal, as well as a modern event area.

In his welco­ming speech, Mana­ging Part­ner Oliver Voßhen­rich focu­sed on the motto of the cele­bra­tion: “We cele­brate progress!” — Progress needs space. And this space has now been crea­ted. Howe­ver, progress also means not only conti­nuously driving forward the mission “Make. Shop­ping. Simply. Better.”, but also offe­ring space for sustainable and inclu­sive proces­ses. By crea­ting jobs for people with disa­bi­li­ties and focu­sing on sustainable produc­tion proces­ses, the company is paving the way for the consis­tent further deve­lo­p­ment of its corpo­rate stra­tegy.

The addi­tio­nal event area, which bears the name “punkt­Acht”, now also provi­des the oppor­tu­nity to streng­then and expand custo­mer networks. “We want to revive part­ner rela­ti­onships and offer the perfect plat­form for this with this loca­tion,” said Oliver Voßhen­rich, explai­ning the vision of the multi­func­tional premi­ses.

In his speech, company foun­der Udo Voßhen­rich empha­si­zed the importance of custo­mers for the success and growth of the company. “The real trig­gers for expan­sion are our custo­mers. You can’t move forward without custo­mers.” He said he was very proud of the deve­lo­p­ment of POS TUNING and how progres­si­vely all the things he built up over 25 years ago are being contin­ued.

In his speech, Bad Salzu­flen’s mayor Dirk Tolk­emitt also paid tribute to the company’s services to the region. Some­thing great has been crea­ted that radia­tes far beyond the borders of Lippe. Trust in the Lippe loca­tion also crea­tes trust in the people who live and work here.

Volker Stein­bach also addres­sed the topic of trust in his speech. The Presi­dent of the Lippe Cham­ber of Indus­try and Commerce in Detmold focu­sed on the impe­tus that POS TUNING also provi­des for other compa­nies. Inno­va­tive strength paired with confi­dence in the loca­tion is a strong and visi­ble sign for the economy in Lippe.

Michael Gerling made it clear in his words that perse­ver­ance and mode­sty are the keys to success. The Mana­ging Direc­tor of the EHI Retail Insti­tute had also trave­led from Colo­gne for the opening and was impres­sed by the company’s history. Bad Salzu­flen is ever­y­where. POS TUNING products can be found all over the world. And this is mainly due to the perse­ver­ance of company foun­der Udo Voßhen­rich. Not only did he firmly believe in his idea at the time, he also drove it forward with heart and passion.

Follo­wing the offi­cial part of the event, the guests were given seve­ral guided tours to gain exci­ting insights into the new produc­tion and work areas. The event was roun­ded off with a barbe­cue on the new roof terrace — a place that will not only be used for events in the future, but also for crea­tive breaks and exch­an­ges during the working day.
