Franz Egger:

Franz inherited the farm from his parents and manages 2.7 hectares of orchards there. From an early age, he actively helped on the farm, later worked in development cooperation, and also taught at a secondary school for agriculture.
In 2002, his product was patented and he began selling it. Initially, the family’s garage was used as a storage space. However, it quickly became too small and impractical.
Franz therefore decided to take out an Ethical Banking loan to build cellar storage facilities.

The funded project

“Ethical Banking gave me a boost through a loan and has made my work much easier,” Franz Egger tells us.
