'Chic comfortable leather sofas to an affordable preis', is the upperfranconian upholstery specialist W.Schillig's motto. The family company is being managed by its second and third generation. The fourth is already in the starting block.
Rubber wheels are zooming over the factory's concret floor, clack clack and a cheeky jump over the upholstery table and off towards the dispatch hall. The hall is completely empty this evening because the company's trucks have just picked up all orders. That's how it must have been as the 10 year old Erik Stammberger scooted through the upholstery company. Today, 27 years later, he's the junior manager.
