Ammerer Bed Company (Betten Ammerer in German) is an Austrian family business operating in its eighth generation, established in 1763. Specialising in sleeping systems and textile design, their services encompass a range of activities including a curtain-sewing workshop, bed sanitisation, furniture upholstery, home servicing, mattress delivery and disposal, monogram embroidery, 3D room planning, as well as the organisation of wedding tables.
- In 1763 Leopold Ammerer married into a “Posementierbetrieb” (a weavers-craft) in “Ried im Innkreis” and attained market rights. With his wife Mechtildis he founded Ammerer.[3]
- In 1816 the parent company at the main square of Ried im Innkreis was acquired successfully by the second generation. Today the house accommodates the business including logistics, marketing and PR.[4]
- In 1848 the third generation continued textile distribution.[5]
- In 1949 the sixth generation of “Ammerers” moved the enterprise main focus to “Braunau am Inn” and founded branches in Salzburg, Mattighofen and in the Bavarian region. The outbuilding in Ried (today: main square #29) was acquired.
- In 1981 the headquarters shifted back to Ried. Today the seventh generation is in charge.[6]
