MEDIA RELEASE PR40953
A Fresh Start for the GEMBALLA Brand
LEONBERG, Germany, Aug. 25 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --
- Andreas Schwarz is in Charge of the new GEMBALLA GmbH
For around 30 years the brand GEMBALLA has been a
global name in the performance improvement and modification of predominantly
Porsche vehicles, and in the construction of own-brand vehicles based on
Porsche body shells. GEMBALLA has made a name for itself as one of the most
extreme Porsche tuners and has received worldwide attention with its modified
Porsches such as the GEMBALLA Avalanche, which is based on the Porsche 911,
or the GEMBALLA Mirage GT, based on the Porsche Carrera GT.
Since August 16, 2010, Andreas Schwarz (40) has been in charge of the
emotional GEMBALLA brand. Schwarz reserved the rights of the old company that
had already been broken up by liquidators and shut down, and founded a new
company, GEMBALLA GmbH. The company headquarters are located at
Mollenbachstrasse 17 in Leonberg.
"With a totally new company and an investment of millions, we are now
looking towards a secure future", says managing director (CEO) Andreas
Schwarz. The educated Swabian is a sports car expert, who has many years'
experience in upgrading and marketing luxury high-class automobiles. Together
with investor Steffen Korbach, the new creator of GEMBALLA cars has made
cost-efficient plans.
"As well as the rights to the name, we've also purchased some assets and
are starting off with 22 employees", Schwarz continues. "We plan to continue
the GEMBALLA design line following the old models. We're already working on
various concepts for the Porsche Panamera and the new Porsche Cayenne among
others."
The main goal: to expand and develop the GEMBALLA brand as a
manufacturer. Without facing too much time pressure. Currently, Andreas
Schwarz is making plans in motor tuning and the marketing of parts such as
bodykits, rims, brakes and suspension systems.
"We've got enormous potential in this area that can be taken advantage of
-
the recognition of the GEMBALLA name with its near 30-year tradition really
helps", says Andreas Schwarz.
That is why we will see automobile creations from GEMBALLA in the future
-
with a breath of fresh air for the brand and reliable business under the
GEMBALLA name. The showroom in Leonberg is now open for customers and all
interested parties.
