challenges and outlook on 2025

Despite the success, the company also sees great challenges. Beat Rünzler, Chief Administrative Officer von Bachmann, emphasizes the disproportionate cost increases in Europe, especially in Austria, significantly difficult for international business. The increased expenses for IT security and software as well as tightened legal framework are the large cost drivers. Rünzler also demands a reduction in bureaucracy at European level to meet the company. Bachmann plans a cautious growth course for 2025 to adapt to the unpredictable political and economic conditions and to keep the organizational structures efficient.

The company employs 555 people worldwide at 20 locations and is a leading innovator in the development of autonomous shipping and sustainable operating concepts, as can be seen from the report of bachmann.com . These initiatives are not only an answer to the current challenges, but also a sign of the future -oriented strategy of Bachmann Electronic.
