Thank you for the interesting day!
On 10th of August we hosted our customer day in Mäder at the headquarters (Vorarlberg , Austria).
Almost 30 customers from all over Europe accepted the invitation. Specifically for this day our customer traveled from Estonia, Poland, Bulgaria, Holland and of course from our neighboring countries Switzerland and Germany as well as customers from Austria.
During the company visit, the customers got an insight into our family business.
In addition to informative reports and a factory visit, a joint hiking tour was on the day's program.
Even rain and cold couldn’t change the good atmosphere. The active participation in personal idea exchanges featured our customer day. We look forward to many more years of a good cooperation.

Gunz transfers all shares of MIA Systems to Mag. Alexander Fehr
1.8.2016

In November 2007, Gunz Warenhandels GmbH established together with Alexander Fehr the MIA Systems & Software GmbH. With 50% each, both parties were equally involved in the rights of the company. On July 1, 2016 Gunz passed over all shares to Executive Director Fehr. "MIA Systems has its own success story and can look back on a great development. 9 years ago, we gladly got involved and helped to make a young company the way to independence easier. Our common expectations were met and exceeded, software development is not our main business. Therefore, the timing was ideal to pass the entire company shares to Alexander Fehr," said Werner Gunz.
Gunz will still trust in the future on the IT solutions of MIA, which will continue to have their principal office at the Gunz headquarters in Mäder. MIA currently employs 21 employees.
