Watch band manufacturer Hirsch from Carinthia is world market leader. Hirsch sells his watch bands in 62 countries around the world.
This year the sales should increase from 40 million EUR up to seven percent.
The company is located in Carinthias provincial capital Klagenfurt, and manufactures between 6 and 10 millions of high grade watch bands.
Hirsch has 5 manufacturing facilities: one in the headquarter in Klagenfurt, three in India (Bangalore, Hosur, and Dehradun), and another one in China (Longguang Zhen). The secret of success is the connection and combination between flamboyant design and traditional handicraft.
Hirsch has no competitor who can do business competition in all 62 countries at the same time. The only competitor is located in Italy: Morellato. But the Italians are only a competition in the Central European market.
