If you can party, you can work – but you don’t have to! To ensure that the 1,000 employees of the Haubis bakery can fully enjoy the company’s Oktoberfest on October 12, the bosses around Anton Haubenberger decided: all branches will close early on Saturday and, as an exception, they will be completely closed on Sunday.
Experience the bakery craft up close and enjoy it at the same time – that is what the 16,000 square meter adventure world called Haubiversum in Petzenkirchen, Lower Austria promises. However, this week it ends earlier on Saturday and remains completely closed on Sundays. Reason: The family-run bakery is organizing an Oktoberfest on the evening of October 12 at the Wieselburg Exhibition Center.
Thank you for your work and dedication
“We would like to thank all employees for their hard work and commitment – it is a day to celebrate, laugh and strengthen the community,” it said.
To ensure that all 1,000 employees can celebrate, everything in the company’s 16 stores will not be back to normal until Monday. For some people, this means rethinking their Sunday breakfast: Haubis operates nine locations in Upper Austria and seven in Lower Austria.
Productions in Linz and Bad Goisern
In terms of production, the company is also deeply rooted in the state above the Enns: baking takes place at the former Ring location in Linz, but also in Bad Goisern, where the Salzkammergut bakery was taken over.
To celebrate, other bakers also give their employees time off: Resch&Frisch from Gunskirchen gave all branches and production facilities a break on September 21 and 22 so that employees could celebrate the company’s 100th anniversary in Mondsee.
