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.

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 ;-)
