BB-NET AS A COMPANY
ORIGIN AND
MILESTONES
bb-net is one of the largest and best quality IT providers in Germany and Europe. We are a colorful group with a lot of love for the detail, a high level of know-how and perfectly digital processes.
In the mid-XNUMXs, an analog data carrier was still standard. Today more for nostalgics and lovers.
At exactly this time, initially as a garage company, the company was founded by a young entrepreneur who was still underage at the time. As the way of listening to music has changed, bb-net has always evolved. Starting out as a small all-round IT service company with an advertising agency for the up-and-coming Internet, it developed into an important niche product in the large IT landscape, also due to some lucky circumstances and clever decisions. We ourselves believe that there is still a lot of music in the future of processed IT.
"QUALITY CREATES VALUE."
As a company, we are realizing our vision of IT processing. Starting with a one-time approach in rollback, the retrieval of the devices, to production and marketing under our orange quality seal tecXL. The whole team is passionate about their work every day - for the success of our services and products. Highest quality and reliability - always true to our motto.

PASSION
We have fun doing what we do. Our heart beats for processed IT. Whether in sales, production, technology or administration, there is a high level of understanding for our products and know-how.
Thanks to many years of experience, we can cover all relevant areas. Started with the rollback (purchase, logistics, data destruction, audit and disposal), production in our technology center and remarketing (marketing of processed IT as tecXL or used IT product).
Bb-net has been able to record continuous growth over the past few years. We like to orient our growth here with the 20 mile march from Amundsen to the South Pole. The goal is constant, healthy, qualitative and equity-strong growth.
Environment and sustainability are at the core of the Schweinfurt company's DNA.
At the beginning of 2020 bb-net was certified by Focus Zukunft as the first German climate-neutral company in the field of IT reprocessing. With the help of targeted measures, we avoid the effects of CO2 and continue to reduce environmental pollution. Only in the last step do we offset unavoidable emissions with trustworthy climate protection certificates.

OUR STORY
1996
OFFICE OPENING
The first office for the advertising agency and PC service at the time was opened in Schweinfurter Strasse in Schwebheim just a few meters from the parents' house.
The mayor and the local music association also visited the young computer talents. At that time, Bleicher and Beck operated under the name B&B - Beck and Bleicher Computer Systems.
1997
TV INTERVIEW
Managing Director Michael Bleicher's first TV appearance.
In an interview with the regional television broadcaster TV1, the young entrepreneur speaks about the company, which at the time was still called Bleicher Computer Systeme. From today's point of view, he wouldn't make all the statements anymore, but certainly a nice look back to make you smile ;-)
2000
GMBH & UMZUG
Exactly on January 5th, the managing director's birthday, the now named sole proprietorship became bb-net media productions converted to GmbH. The company is still of the same name today bb-net media GmbH remained. The company moved into its first own cold warehouse in Gulbranssonstrasse. This is also where the first dispatch started in Schwebheim.
2018
NEW BUILDING
After long planning, the biggest milestone in bb-net company history to date was created in the Schweinfurt Main Valley in 2018. The new company headquarters in the Lisbon Street 4.
