BBM is active as a procurement company, trading partner and service provider working in the poorest countries of the world on behalf of charitable organisations and dedicated private individuals.

BBM AUSTRIA

About us

BBM is a non-profit service provider working in the sector of development cooperation. Its primary goal is the efficient implementation of donations. Thus, only a contribution to cover the cost price is charged and no profit is made.

BBM's activities focus on the sectors of mobility and technology & ecology. Both focal points provide support for the logistics factor. These include, for example, the procurement and delivery of motor vehicles or the planning and implementation of technical-ecological (large-scale) projects. BBM is based at ChristophorusHaus in Stadl-Paura, Upper Austria. It is an innovative passive house, designed to be a centre of encounter and dialogue, and was created not least because of BBM's experiences in Africa. In addition to the BBM, it is also home to the relief organisation MIVA Austria. MIVA finances all kinds of transport for use in mission work and development aid.

Our goal

BBM's primary goal is the efficient implementation of the donations collected in Austria and beyond. Furthermore, our goal is to find the best possible solution for every challenge.

How we work

COOPERATION

BBM was founded in 1989 with the aim of efficiently implementing donations collected in Austria. It has been proving that it can do this for over 30 years. As a not-for-profit company our top priority is not profit, but the wellbeing of our partners. Cooperation at eye level is a matter of course for us. In every project, no matter how small, the communication between project partners, donors and the BBM team is excellent right from the start.
