30 years of BMS Audio: A journey through our company history
Our milestones
It all began in 1982 with the development and production of mobile loudspeaker systems in Riet near Ludwigsburg. Ten years later, BMS Audio was founded. In 1995, we moved to Crailsheim, where we are based today, with a further branch near Nuremberg. We have since grown into a medium-sized family business - with short decision-making processes and flat hierarchies. We are highly specialized in order to successfully continue the company's 30-year history with the next generation.
Milestones
Once again, we are developing a completely new website in order to be as digitally accessible as possible.
Due to the expansion on an operational level, but also for the development of new markets worldwide, we have relocated.
You can now find us at the following address:
BMS Audio GmbH
Roßfelder Straße 65/5
D-74564 Crailsheim
