Zürichsee Druckereien sold to FO Print & Media AG

Im April trennte sich Theodor Gut von der Zürichsee-Zeitung. Nun hat der VR-Präsident der Zürichsee Medien (ZSM) auch einen Käufer für die Zürichsee Druckereien AG gefunden. Das Unternehmen wurde Ende letzter Woche von der FO Print & Media gekauft.

There will be no changes for the approximately 20 employees. The jobs at the Stäfa site will be retained, according to a press release issued on Monday. Production at the current site as well as the management and technical contacts will remain in place. All those involved will continue to operate under the current company name until further notice. Theodor Gut will also retain his seat on the company's Board of Directors. Gut assured the media that the sale of the printing company would not affect Zürichsee-Zeitung. Zürichsee Druckereien has not been printing newspapers for years, but specializes in pre-press.
The companies expect the takeover to generate synergy benefits for both sides. The Egg-based media company FO Print & Media, whose core business is the production of printed matter, is hoping for growth in the area of periodical production. According to Managing Director Ivo Mani, Zürichsee Druckereien, on the other hand, wants to benefit from FO Print & Media's range of services, which also includes online media and the production of securities.
