To mark Böllhoff Group’s 145th anniversary its employees decided to continue a cherished tradition of linking three Böllhoff locations with a six-day bike tour – arriving at Böllhoff headquarters for the anniversary celebrations.
The bike tour covered a total distance of 670km and involved 15 employees leaving Böllhoff UK in Willenhall, Birmingham, travelling to Böllhoff in Hull over the course of two days. The group then took an overnight ferry to Rotterdam where it met up with a further 5 employees before heading towards the company’s headquarters in Bielefeld, Germany – with the route taking them through Utrecht before entering Germany and going to Emmerich, Munster and then the final stretch to Bielefeld.
When the riders were welcomed at headquarters by the Böllhoff family and around 2,000 employees and their families, who were all celebrating the 145th anniversary.
“This seventh Böllhoff bike tough, with previous tours including other destinations such as Prague, Czech Republic, Munich, Germany, and Chambéry, France,” explains Sam Lockey, key account manager - UK Automotive, at Böllhoff Ltd “We would like to express our sincere thanks to our sponsors LuckyBike and Dr Wolff Group for their support, as well as the Böllhoff family and their real willingness to assist us.”
