1923,
Gustav Schickedanz founds a wholesale business for haberdashery, linen and
woollens in Fürth/Bavaria. Now Quelle is the premier mail-order firm for furniture in Germany? Quelle is also
numbered among the three leading suppliers overall in the German furniture
market. All the catalogues of one edition were piled on top of each other, they would be
far higher than the Eiffel tower: by more than 1,030 times. The total weight of one edition of Quelle's main catalogue is equivalent to
4,170 adult elephants. All main catalgues of one edition placed in a row, would form a super highway
3,240 km long. It would easily stretch from Copenhagen to Palermo, or from
Munich to Kiel and back. Quelle is the premier, national, mail-order company in Germany, Austria, the
Czech Republic, the Slovak Republic and Slowenia
