TAKKT completes planned real estate sale in the US

Stuttgart, Germany, December 19, 2018. Last week, TAKKT has successfully completed the real estate sale in the US which was announced at the end of October.

The property sold is an office building that belonged to the former US subsidiary C&H. In the course of the sale of C&H at the beginning of 2015, the property initially remained with TAKKT and was prepared for later sale.
