Vaude:
For over thirty years VAUDE has stood for excellence in mountain sports and is now one of Europe's leading mountain sports brand names. Today VAUDE is one of the very few privately owned enterprises in the industry that has successfully withstood the trend toward consolidation. The company has achieved continuous growth in the mountain sports, outdoor, bike and sports fashion sectors. 60% of turnover comes from sales in Germany, 40% comes from exports. VAUDE products are sold world-wide.
The company is based in Tettnang, between Friedrichshafen and Ravensburg near Lake Constance in southern Germany. About 200 employees and colleagues work there. This is also where a large part of research and product development is played out. However VAUDE has a truly international presence and is represented in over 40 countries world wide, with over 1,200 personnel world wide.
