Demolition work is in full swing where the Quelle department store once stood on Industriezeile in Linz. At the beginning of September, there will be nothing left to remind us of the building, and in the same month, Plasser & Theurer will give the official go-ahead for the construction of a plant for the final assembly and commissioning of track-laying machines with a ground-breaking ceremony

More than 50 million euros will be invested in this - the owner family around boss Johannes Max-Theurer is paying for the expansion from private funds. The reason: The company's liquidity should not be burdened.
