Willisauer Bote cooperative is now a public limited company

The Willisauer Bote Medien und Print cooperative has been given a new legal form. The Annual General Meeting decided by a large majority to convert the cooperative into a public limited company with retroactive effect from the beginning of 2010.

The new legal form is intended to prevent capital from flowing out. In a cooperative, members can return shares, which leads to a reduction in capital. The share capital amounts to CHF 1.09 million. The company includes SWS Medien Verlag, which publishes the Willisauer/Wiggertaler Boten and the Seetaler Boten, as well as SWS Medien Print with a printing center in Sursee.
