Baltensperger

Baltensperger is a Swiss steel construction company facing significant challenges due to a dispute with the Zurich Zoo over the construction of a new aviary for South American animals. The company has been struggling financially, with the potential loss of over seventy jobs looming as negotiations with the zoo have stalled. Recently, they managed to pay their employees' December wages, albeit under precarious circumstances. The firm is currently advocating for the return of 4 million Swiss francs from the zoo, which they claim was improperly withheld due to alleged contract violations, as they seek to navigate a complex and contentious separation from the zoo.
