It forms the basis for particularly strong, customer loyalty and top rankings in brand awareness.

Speed, creativity and visions are the factors determining Busch-Jaeger‘s orientation. Competence, enthusiasm and passion are also to be the driving force in the future for inspiring customers with products and solutions that offer the decisive added value. And multifaceted communication that utilises all the channels: from the eye-catching TV spots at prime time on German television, the Internet and interesting ideas in the field of social media, to the apps for smartphone and tablet PC.
