50 years of SCHUBERT STONE: half a century of success
It's time to celebrate: SCHUBERT STONE is turning 50! On this occasion, we would like to take you on a journey back in time to 1973, when a small natural stone trading company was founded in Vienna by Nina and Karlheinz Schubert. What began as a small company has developed over the decades into one of the leading suppliers of natural stone, porcelain stoneware and parquet in Austria. Today we can look back on a 50-year success story.
Five decades, one family business
With the founding of the natural stone trading company, Nina and Karlheinz Schubert laid the foundations for the first company in Vienna to sell porphyry and Solnhofen limestone to private builders, with their private premises initially serving as a showroom for the stones. Initially, the company's own car was also used to transport the stone slabs. The main focus at that time was on furnishing private building projects and gardens with natural stone.
In 1978, the trading company moved to its current location at Breitenfurter Straße 249 in Vienna's 23rd district under the name K.H. Schubert. The company premises include the historic warehouse and the Wilhelminian-style villa with some open spaces. Thomas Schubert, the son of the company founders, joined the company in 1981. Since then, the trading company has grown steadily under the name SCHUBERT STEINZENTRUM: international projects have been tackled, new supplier relationships established, the entire company property acquired, rebuilt and opened, and the stonemasonry workshop brought up to the latest technical standards. In 2008, the company was renamed SCHUBERT STONE.
Thomas Schubert has been managing the company together with his son Mathias Schubert since 2018. Their aim is to optimize the business into a digitalized and sustainable company. Both are contributing their extensive expertise to continue writing the SCHUBERT STONE success story.
