Since October 2010 there is a Blue Tomato Shop in Vienna 1) .<br />

In Neubaugasse 3 you will find 1000m 2 covered with everything a<br />

boarder needs.<br />

Schladming 2) is the homebase of Blue Tomato and is surrounded<br />

by some of the best snowparks in Austria. This is where everything<br />

started and you can find the first Blue Tomato shop in the middle<br />

of town.<br />

The Blue Tomato Shop in Graz 3) opened its gates 5 years ago and<br />

has become an importanat part of the city. Right in the heart of<br />

the city, close to the wall, customers can find great products and<br />

super service.<br />

The Blue Tomato Shops in Obertauern 4) and Haus/Ennstal 5) are<br />

only open in winter. They are located close to both the slopes and<br />

the parking lots.<br />

New logistics department in Graz<br />

Since May 2010, Blue Tomato has been shipping its deliveries from<br />

the new delivery centre in Graz.<br />

It consists of 5.000m2 storage space. Plenty of shelves, the<br />

picking and packing area and also our photo and video studio are<br />

housed there.<br />

The relocation to Graz allowed us to greatly improve our logistics<br />

department and enhance our expertise in the mail order trade.<br />

The resorting of the shops is also coordinated in Graz.


Schladming Headquarter<br />

After the relocation of the logistics department, the Blue Tomato<br />

headquarter in Schladming was reconstructed into a modern<br />

office building. The Finance & Controlling, Product Management,<br />

Marketing & E-Marketing, Purchasing and Customer Service<br />

departments are now stretched out across three floors.<br />

The IT department was also relocated to Graz. The open,<br />

communicative office areas allow enough room for further<br />

expansions.<br />

Blue Tomato Snowparks<br />

This winter Blue Tomato Park Stuhleck opened its gates.<br />

As of the winter season 2011/12 a Blue Tomato Park will be<br />

standing in the heart of Austria. The Blue Tomato KINGS PARK<br />

Hochkönig! This park stands out with Austrias longest rail, box and<br />

kicker line (ca. 2 km) and is snow safe because of snow making<br />

capabilities.<br />

If the Nike 6.0 Stairset battle or the Volcom Peanut Butter Rail<br />

Jam at Stuhleck were the highlights of last season, the Nike 6.0<br />

Chosen Austria Event will keep it coming this year. Follow it and<br />

many other events on <strong>blue</strong>-<strong>tomato</strong>.com in our online magazine,<br />
