2017 | No. 1 Trade Partner

Viessmann named “No.1 Trade Partner” for the 14th time in a row. Every two years, the industry journal “markt intern” calls upon German specialist heating contractors to rate manufacturers’ performances in a variety of product and service categories. This year once again thousands of specialist companies took part in the survey, and once again the name of the winner was Viessmann – for the fourteenth time in a row. Three top spots and a third place ensured that the overall winner was again the company with headquarters in Allendorf (Eder) in North Hesse.
