Modest beginnings
Our company was founded in the late 1830's by Jakob Furrer. Under his leadership the small horse-based haulage firm developed into a rapidly growing transport company. His son-in-law, Albert Welt, joined the company around 1860 and infused new ideas and dynamics. As a result of the increased mobility of the populace the furniture transport and moving business flourished, and the company soon developed international activities. |
