Since the Güntensperger cheese dairy had grown more and more in the past, the cheese maturing warehouse in Bütschwil with 17,000 places became too small, so more space was needed. In addition to the new maturing warehouse, space was also created for all packaging, which today serves as a transshipment point for all deliveries. The company office is also located on the upper floor, from where the company's finances are managed. Outside the building is the factory store, which is open on Fridays and Saturdays.
