Wall AG celebrates Germany's first Olympic gold medal winner on large format posters, displaying the slogan: "We congratulate Alexander Grimm on his Olympic gold medal". Starting from tomorrow, 200 backlit City Light Posters, provided by international street furniture supplier and outdoor advertiser Wall AG, will adorn Bavaria's third largest city.

The display is valued at about 15.000 euros. The poster, showing a stylized picture of the slalom-canoeist with the hotly contested trophy, was created by Wall AG's marketing department. Printing was funded by Ustersbacher Private Breweries and "Die Familienunternehmer – ASU".

"Besides the famous merchant and banker Jakob Fugger, composer Leopold Mozart, and renowned 20 Century writer Bertolt Brecht, the historic city of Augsburg now has a fourth famous son, whom it can rightly be proud of." Daniel Wall, Chief Executive Officer of Wall AG, emphasizes, "Our posters are intended to celebrate the outstanding achievement of 21 year old Alexander Grimm, and to wish him all the best for his sportive career."

Since 2002, Wall AG is a partner of Augsburg's public transports service (Stadtwerke Augsburg Verkehrs-GmbH) and markets more than 600 poster advertising spaces at bus and tramway shelters as well as premium advertising spaces at the fashionable urban shopping mall "City-Galerie Augsburg". All advertising structures are cleaned and maintained regularly by Wall AG’s specialised service employees.
