Schubert North America plans new U.S. headquarters in Charlotte, North Carolina
The new headquarters will allow the German company to better service its U.S.-based customers.
Crailsheim, Germany-based Schubert Group said North America is one its most important export markets and is developing at a rate that is well above average. A considerable increase in turnover was once again achieved in 2020 — despite the challenging conditions that resulted from Covid-19. To be able to work more autonomously in the future and to serve customers even better, the packaging machine manufacturer said it is planning to further expand its North American subsidiary. The city of Charlotte has now become a hub of headquarters for German businesses in the United States. There are 213 German companies in the area, including Bayer, Lufthansa, Siemens, Thyssen-Krupp and, since 2015, Schubert North America. The Schubert subsidiary manages and grows the company’s business across the continent.
“The market has developed disproportionately well,” said Hartmut Siegel, CEO of Schubert North America. “Fortunately, the pandemic has not slowed down the ongoing development of our product innovations. Demand from our North American customers for state-of-the-art packaging technology with great flexibility and a high degree of automation has been high."
