At least in the early days, the company's headquarters were on Paulinenstrasse in Heilbronn . The magazine Der Motorwagen reported that a branch was to be opened on Gitschiner Strasse in Berlin in January 1907 . This address is also mentioned in an advertisement. The most important branch of production was the manufacture of car bodies. It was only at the beginning of the company that the company produced its own automobiles. The brand name was Heilbronn .

The address Weipertstrasse in Heilbronn is given in an advertisement dated 1916. Army missions were carried out during the First World War .

In 1920 or 1921 there was a merger with Carosserie Schebera GmbH Berlin to form Süddeutsche Karosseriewerke Schebera Heilbronn AG .
