Feb. 21, 2008 - PRLog -- Zurich (SUI), Breuberg (GER)  – Odenwald-Früchte GmbH, manufacturer of fruit preserves, confiture and reduced-calorie fruit products decided to choose the product development application OS-PDM. The flexible solution of the Swiss software company Object Solutions has been adapted to the particular needs of Odenwald-Früchte. OS-PDM was the choice „because of its logical structure and flexibility”, according to Olaf Hoffmann, development manager at Odenwald-Früchte.
