Togeth­er, we can look back on a long cor­po­rate his­to­ry. The foun­da­tion stone of today’s group was laid in 1946 when PVG was estab­lished. Hav­ing dis­cov­ered his enthu­si­asm for and under­stand­ing of news­pa­per and mag­a­zine dis­tri­b­u­tion as a child, Thomas Kirschn­er went on to work for the Frank­furt-based com­pa­ny (today’s PVG Presse-Ver­triebs-Gesellschaft) dur­ing his school years and stud­ies.
