Industry ticker: Young entrepreneur award, successful relocation and brazen thieves
Swiss athletes such as Jolanda Neff, Thomas Litscher and Fabian Giger rely on parts from Basel-based lightweight construction specialist Ceetec. The company recently won medals not only on the race track: Ceetec also landed on the podium at the Northwestern Switzerland Young Entrepreneur Award, taking third place.
Bike manufacturer Tour de Suisse is also running at full speed in the off-season. After the ground-breaking ceremony in August 2017, the new company building was recently occupied and has already been furnished. "Around 1500 pallet volumes have been given a new space and all employees and their infrastructure have arrived safely," announces the traditional Swiss bike manufacturer.
There was no reason for joy on November 26 at 3T at the company headquarters in Bergamo. Using heavy equipment, particularly brazen burglars had made their way through a meter-thick concrete wall into the warehouse and stolen over 20 bicycles. Particularly annoying is the theft of a one-off bike for which Dario Pegoretti, who died this August and is regarded as a frame building legend, produced the special paintwork. 3T asks you to keep your eyes open to see if the bikes turn up on the web or via other channels.Note: This content has been automatically translated from German.
