The Neuhof spinning mill is a spinning mill in Hof in Bavaria .
Location and history
The spinning mill is located on Dr.-Enders-Straße in Hof's Neuhof district . Not far from there is the Hof-Neuhof train station on the Hof – Bad Steben line .
The textile company was founded in 1896 by five entrepreneurs. The textile industry was the most important branch of industry in the region at this time , and spinning mills were also set up in other cities such as Bayreuth , Plauen and Reichenbach in Vogtland . At that time there were already many spinning mills in Hof, some of them merged in 1869 to form the Hof Textilgruppe (now the Hoftex Group ). The economic development of the company and the industry as a whole grew significantly. After the First World War , however, development stagnated, but continued successfully. The global economic crisis also posed a problem for the textile industry.
In the past, the Neuhof spinning mill was a stock corporation . After the Second World War , globalization and competition from Asia led to a further weakening. In 2010 the Neuhof spinning mill finally went bankrupt . The great-grandson of the founder Karl Laubmann, Dieter Laubmann, was not prepared to provide a deficiency guarantee of 250,000 euros.
In the same year the company was taken over by the investor group Werner Kandel, who is the authorized signatory of the Munsterland textile company C. Cramer & Co.
