“Looking for a big area with good transport links and in close proximity of France, Saarland was worth special consideration. For nobilia, the French market is the second most important market after Germany. On this background, the location on Lisdorfer Berg near Saarlouis offers ideal prerequisites: an area of 29 ha, situated a stone´s throw away from the French border. Furthermore, a well-structured pool of skilled personnel, also in terms of francophone staff, is available in Saarland. Last but not least, the efficient services of the local authorites have made things much easier for us. Therefore, Saarland is another important building block for our continued success.”
