Bad Soden am Taunus: where companies can put down roots
Within the Rhine-Main region, Bad Soden am Taunus has always provided a special space for both companies and residents. The town combines the advantages of its central location – just 15 minutes from Frankfurt – with its own unique character and a high quality of life.
The diverse character of our town can be seen in the smallest of spaces: Business professionals enjoy their lunch break in the historic spa gardens with its bubbling mineral springs, while on the other side of town, shoe manufacturer Diamant is creating glamorous dance shoes for popular TV show “Let’s Dance” – Germany’s version of “Dancing with the Stars”. At the same time, global player MESSER is employing cutting-edge technology to work on the decarbonatization of industrial processes. The company’s new “ZeCarb” technology allows for the capture of CO2 emissions right at the source. This unusual mix of businesses has grown organically over decades – characterized by people and companies who, in addition to the central location, particularly appreciate the atmosphere of Bad Soden.
“Our limited commercial space is a valuable asset.”
Bad Soden is developing at a careful pace, ensuring that new businesses are in line with the town’s character. The local retail businesses are evidence of this: The townscape is characterized by owner-managed stores that create a personal atmosphere. Anne Fleischhauer, Bad Soden’s Economic Developer and City Manager, describes the special flair of the town center as follows: “To shop in Bad Soden is to discover and encounter.”
Now, Bad Soden am Taunus is planning its economic future with the development of its last large commercial area, “Sinai III”. To ensure a balanced economic development, the town has set a generous timeframe for this project.
Anne Fleischhauer has this advice for new entrepreneurs: “If you want to get your business off the ground here, you should definitely be open to cross-sector contacts.” With its short distances – not only to nearby Frankfurt, but also between the town’s administration and business sector –, Bad Soden is a town shaped by personal relationships.
As a business location, Bad Soden am Taunus is continuously evolving – while still retaining its unique character. This a place where both companies and people can put down roots.
