Thömus goes on a shopping spree

The flags of Thömus are being hoisted in Lenzburg: from January 2023, the Bernese bicycle manufacturer will take over the traditional company 2-Rad-Center Hartmann in Lenzburg as part of a succession plan. Thömus is thus opening the first store with a workshop in the Aargau region.

René and Anita Hartmann were the last people to run the family business. Commenting on the succession plan, they say: "Finding a Swiss solution was very important to us. With Swissness, personal advice, quality and comprehensive service, Thömus stands for the same values that 2-Rad-Center Hartmann has lived by for the last 60 years." In addition to modern premises, the established specialist dealer in the region also has a spacious workshop. With this takeover, Thömus is continuing its expansion throughout Switzerland and making Velo Hightech from Bern accessible to the Aargau region in the future.

"Swissness is in our DNA," says Thomas Binggeli, CEO of Thömus. "We focus on Swiss development, Swiss production and our community. It is crucial for us to bring our proven service close to our customers."

The takeover will take effect in 2023, and from February 1, the premises in Lenzburg will also appear under the Thömus flag. Of course, bicycles of all brands will continue to be repaired and serviced.

With its stores and service hubs in Zurich, Bern, Kriens, Gstaad, Happerswil, Triesen and Arosa, Thömus, which was founded in 1991, already has a clear presence in German-speaking Switzerland.
