TWIKE is now called TWIKE – And nothing else changes

We have been thinking about the overdue change of name to TWIKE GmbH for some time now. Of course, all our obligations and contracts with customers and suppliers will remain valid even after the renaming. The globally protected brand, which has now also been integrated into the company name, provides TWIKE GmbH with a further sustainable basis for all upcoming developments.
