Customer proximity is a decisive competitive factor for any
business. Mühldorf County is located within the scenic Munich me-
tropolitan area, making it part of a high-tech region offering 25,000
industrial jobs and placing it close to Bavaria’s capital.
Mühldorf County has direct connections to Munich – complete with
its modern trade fair centre, an international airport, noted research
facilities and national media operations. In other words, Mühldorf
County is ideally situated for serving the whole of the European mar-
ket – a strong argument in our favour.
Mühldorf County is a traffic hub in various respects. Bavaria’s two
most important traffic arteries – the A94 autobahn/B12 highway and
the B15 highway – cross within its boundaries, linking north to south
and west to east.
Eight railway lines intersect at Mühldorf junction, providing direct
links to Munich, Rosenheim, Traunstein, Landshut, Passau and Salz-
burg. Mühldorf is also an important station on the Trans-European
Transport Network (TEN), the international rail route linking Paris,
Vienna and Budapest, and has lines running to the Adriatic ports
in Italy and Slovenia. Goods traffic benefits accordingly, as shown
by the 2,5 million tons of goods that Mühldorf County´s companies
transport by rail every year ... and counting.
“Many international groups and mid-sized companies use our location in Ramsau
as a major transhipment hub. Not only do we handle our customers’ logistics and
shipping requirements in an optimal manner, our favourable location also enables
us to deliver to every point of the compass. Conditions in Mühldorf County are
ideal for running and expanding a successful forwarding business.”
Hermann Bisquolm, Bisquolm Spedition GmbH, Ramsau, near Haag

14 NETWORKS
How do business enterprises manage these days without the
possibility to network or cooperate with companies operat-
ing in the same value chain? This need not be a problem in
Mühldorf County , where inter-company networks involving south-
east Bavaria as a whole have emerged in a variety of branches.
One of these networks concerns Bavaria‘s chemical industry clus-
ter, complete with such noted industrial enterprises as Wacker
Chemie, Siltronic, Borealis, the OMV petrol refinery and BASF
Construction Chemicals.
Along with the Rosenheim, Traunstein and Berchtesgadener Land
areas, Mühldorf County is also a key part of the Bavarian food
branch, and benefits from its proximity to Weihenstephan Univer-
sity of Applied Sciences and its food and life sciences research
facilities.
“Key personalities from the political, economic and social spheres are involved in develo-
ping the potential of Mühldorf County and shaping the region‘s future. In an effort to
strengthen our assets in comparison to other European regions, we are pursuing projects
concerned with our infrastructure, business and education as well as tourism and nature.
The rewards we are reaping will also benefit incoming businesses.”
Ingrid Obermeier-Osl, Holzwerk Obermeier GmbH, SchwindeggCooperative networks for greater success 15 Byodo, Ceralia and Barnhouse, three Mühldorf-based compa- nies involved in the production of organic and high-quality food products, work together in procurement, marketing and logistics to their mutual advantage – a convincing demonstration of the advantages of horizontal cooperation. The University of Applied Sciences in nearby Rosenheim is a focal point of the Bavarian forestry and wood products cluster. Com- panies in Mühldorf County involved in developing new products benefit strongly not only from the university’s noted Department of Wood Technology but also its Department of Plastics Technolo- gy, Production Technology, Electrical Engineering and Informati- on Technology. Interesting developments in renewable energy also await Mühl- dorf County, home to highly-innovative companies working in this promising branch of technology. A geothermic installation – a project of model character for Bavaria as a whole – is currently in development in Waldkraiburg.

“Mühldorf County offers the advantages of city and country, combining excellent shopping

www.business-opportunities-east-of-munich.deA beautiful corner of Bavaria 21
Upper Bavaria is a region with many facets. Mühldorf County
offers an unusual one – a personable Bavarian world that has lost
none of its original charm.
Mühldorf County is part of the Upper Bavaria region and borders
on the counties of Landshut and Rottal-Inn to the north, Ebersberg
and Erding to the west, Rosenheim and Traunstein to the south and
Altötting to the east.
The Alpine river Inn crosses the entire county from west to east in
wide, lazy loops. Quiet oxbow lakes, precipitous riverbanks and
extensive river terraces characterise the river on its progress past
alluvial woodlands, fertile fields and lush meadows.
Mühldorf County’s population increases nearly 2 percent each year,
and shows every sign of continuing to grow. Between now and 2020,
the county’s communities closest to the greater Munich area will be
experiencing particularly strong growth of 13 percent or more.
This development is reflected by our tourist figures, which indicate a
12 percent increase in visitors in 2002 as compared to 0.2 percent for
Bavaria as a whole.
“Mühldorf County is becoming more and more popular, attracting an increasing number of
companies because of its proximity to the Munich metropolitan region. And many young
families in search of nature and space for their children are also making their way out here.
On a cultural level, things are no longer a one-way-street in the direction of Munich, with
people from the capital often now attending our high-calibre events.”
