Schumacher proves assertiveness
With the start-up of the first corrugated board plant at Schumacher, the further expansion into a corrugated board plant at the competitor Coburger Wellpappe is stopped for the time being. They try to drive Schumacher out of the market with a tough pricing policy. But Schumacher is not driven out so easily: after a short, intense dispute, Wulf Schumacher takes over the Coburger Wellpappe plant and becomes the only corrugated board manufacturer in the region.
