On March 21, 2012, the ground-breaking ceremony for the new company headquarters in Oberwangen was held by Andreas Rickenbacker, member of the Bernese government, and on March 2 and 3, 2013, Andy Rihs (Chairman of the Board of Directors of BMC Switzerland) and Thomas Binggeli (CEO of BMC Switzerland) will host the opening ceremony.

Research, development and production under one roof
The Stromer makers call their new e-bike headquarters "Campus". The new site houses administration, research, development and vehicle assembly under one roof. The Swiss bicycle manufacturer BMC Group, to which the Stromer bicycle brand belongs, has invested around ten million Swiss francs in the 4400 square meter headquarters.

In-house Stromer store
The opening also marks the launch of the latest Stromer sales outlet, which is also housed in the "Campus". On the opening weekend as well as afterwards, customers can test ride Stromer e-bikes on site, take the bike they want straight away - or pre-order it for collection at a later date or for delivery by a regional Stromer dealer.

Guided tours and competitions
Visitors can take a look behind the scenes at the opening on March 2 and 3 from 9 am to 5 pm. Stromer employees will be offering guided tours of the test laboratory, the textile department, the assembly hall and the warehouse. With several competitions and opening offers, plus presentations, a children's program and a festival restaurant, there should be something to suit all tastes.
