Firmly rooted for 36 years: Space for growth in the WALTER BUSINESS-PARK

 

What does it take for a business to grow and thrive in the long term? The right location, favourable conditions and an environment in which one feels comfortable. Evidently, exactly the same applies to a parlor palm.

The Sarstedt company, one of the leading manufacturers of devices and materials for medicine and science, has been a tenant in the WALTER BUSINESS-PARK since 1990. In addition to office & warehouse space, the inventory also includes a very special "employee": a parlor palm, which has had its permanent place in the office for an incredible 36 years. Over the years, it has not only witnessed the development of the company, but has itself grown considerably and become an imposing presence.

36 years is a long time – for a plant as well as for a Managing Director. Now, Mr. Festin, who has been with Sarstedt over all these years, is entering into his well-deserved retirement. Andreas Gratz, the new Managing Director, is taking over responsibility for the company – and also for the large palm tree. 

We wish the entire Sarstedt team much success for the future and look forward to many more years together in the WALTER BUSINESS-PARK. Preferably, of course, with the palm tree, which has long since proven that in the right location, it is possible to grow well and put down roots.
