TRADITION MEETS INNOVATION
Brandenburg, Germany is an industrial area with a long industrial tradition for Daimler. The Daimler-Benz aircraft engine works at Genshagen were built in 1936. The engine works were destroyed in the Second World War and were disassembled when peace came. From 1965 forward, commercial vehicles were produced here.

July 1996 marked the series start for the Vario and in 2006 the successor model to the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter produced in Ludwigsfelde and Dusseldorf was presented. To boost efficiency for its warehouse input as a key step in a major expansion and development program, the German automobile giant chose the intralogistics specialist TGW.
