STARK Group strengthens its specialist network with new branch in Nuremberg
STARK Group continues to expand its German network with the opening of a new Keramundo branch in Nuremberg. The investment is a key part of the Group's strategy to remain close to customers in major growth areas, particularly around larger cities where construction and renovation activity is highest.
The investment forms part of STARK Group's ongoing efforts to develop modern business concepts that enhance customer experience through high product availability, efficient logistics, and specialised expertise and advice. At the same time, it supports the Group's focus on strategically important categories such as tiles.
Søren P. Olesen, Group CEO of STARK Group, says:
"In a market that remains challenging, it is important that we continue to invest selectively in the capabilities that create value for our customers. With the new Keramundo branch, we are strengthening our position within an important specialist category while further enhancing our ability to provide high availability, expert advice, and efficient logistics solutions for tradespeople."
Keramundo is Germany's leading tile distributor, and the new location is among the company's most modern facilities. Covering approximately 13,000 square metres, the site combines an extensive product range with digital solutions and specialist expertise, supported by high product availability and efficient logistics services.
The investment also includes solutions that support more energy-efficient operations. More than 4,000 square metres of the roof have been equipped with solar panels that generate electricity for the building, charging infrastructure for electric passenger vehicles and trucks, as well as the company's own electric forklifts.
The official opening was conducted by Nuremberg's Mayor, Dr Nasser Ahmed.
