Bauer Group takes over Bavarian OTEMA location

10 jobs secured in Höchstadt

The globally operating Austrian Bauer Group, market leader in irrigation and slurry technology, took over the Bavarian location of Otema GmbH, which recently entered into insolvency, and will operate the location under the name BNH-Landtechnik: This secured 10 jobs in Höchstadt. “After the good experiences with BNH in Westphalia, New Holland asked us whether the Bauer Group might like to take over the distribution rights of the former Otema in northern Bavaria/Franconia,” said Bauer General Manager Otto Roiss at the contract signing. This region stretches from Würzburg south to Nuremberg and north to Bayreuth/Kulmbach. Otto Roiss also feels it is very important to make clear that Bauer has no intention of entering into direct sales and continues to see specialized dealers as the group’s distribution partners.
