But Leipzig isn’t just an attractive location for major corporations. The city’s bustling economy is supported by about 38,000 companies registered with the Chamber for Industry and Commerce, as well as more than 5,100 craft businesses.
Ebner Stolz’s Leipzig office, which is near Leipzig’s central train station, has grown right along with the city, establishing itself as a one-stop shop for medium-sized businesses, where they can have all their consulting needs met by a single firm of accountants, auditors, tax advisors, attorneys and business consultants. With the right industry know-how and thorough familiarity with Leipzig’s distinctive features, we will be happy to provide you with a single contact person who will discuss any questions or complex situations you’re facing and will also work through them with the whole multidisciplinary team at our Leipzig office. Especially for national engagements, we also call upon our colleagues in Ebner Stolz’s other branches. Our one-stop consulting services even extend to international issues, because we can consult highly capable partners in our worldwide network, who help us ensure that we’ve covered all our bases.
As one of eastern Germany’s centers for business, education, trade, and culture, Leipzig has exhibited enormous economic growth in recent years. Large automobile manufacturers and suppliers have relocated to Leipzig, making it a major center for the automotive industry. The city has also experienced significant growth in the area of communications and information technology, and the entire region is an important center for the power industry. In addition, the relocation of DHL’s European aviation hub to Leipzig in 2008 boosted the logistics industry.
