Riedlingen is a town in the south-west of Germany, that lies on the beautiful Danube river with a view of the ‘Bussen’ Hill. This hill is called the Holy Mountain of Upper Swabia, and the population is very proud of it. Just like they are proud of their language, which is Swabian – a local German dialect.
“Texmo Blank is a family business through and through. The workplace offers room for growth, potential is recognised and individuality is encouraged.“
