My Company – Grammer
Well I might as well start with my initial thoughts of my company. It actually took me at least ten minutes to figure out how to read the website in English. Grammer is a German company that develops and manufacture components and systems for car interiors and also driver and passenger car seats. They have companies in over twenty countries throughout the world. However not in Australia. During these ten minutes I was in a state of panic. I thought to myself this cant be correct. Why have I been given a German company and not understand one single thing on their website. How was I going to transcribe their annual reports into financial statements? I couldn’t even find their annual reports or any German words that would be similar. After these ten minutes of panic I found a little button that said EN. Then in awe the whole website turned to English. During a conversation with Martin we discussed the complexity of this company. It certainly will be more of a challenge than Scan Tech which I had last semester. The annual report alone is over two hundred pages.
Grammer has secured markets in a range of commercial and private vehicles including rail, buses, construction equipment and trucks.
While exploring their website (now I can read it) I discover the below award
Below are a few snapshots of there financial section. There is 48 pages of updates.

By the end of this semester it very likely I will be more informative about cars then my husband and he has studied them for over twenty years. I’m off to read a few hundred pages of annual reports.
