    Relocation and continuation of services

    Cilander is selling its properties in Herisau. Following the sale of the eastern part of the site to Rico Sicherheitstechnik AG, the western part will now be taken over by Herold Taxi AG, Cilander announced in a press release. The textile company had ceased production in Herisau following the takeover of strategic assets by the Chargeurs Group in July. The newly created SENFA-CILANDER Switzerland AG, headquartered in Herisau, will continue parts of the business under the umbrella of Chargeurs and in particular maintain production in Lützelflüh BE.

    Herold Taxi AG, currently based in St.Gallen, will move to the newly acquired site. “After a long search, we are delighted to have found a location that supports our growth for the benefit of our private and public customers,” said Managing Director Samuel Holenstein in the press release. “We look forward to continuing our history in Herisau and being there for our customers.” However, the services in St.Gallen will continue to be offered around the clock.
