C.W. Obel is a former Danish tobacco manufacturing company which now serves as an investment company fully owned by the foundation Det Obelske Familiefond. Its activities comprise real estate and private equity investments as well as partial ownership of Scandinavian Tobacco Company, Tivoli A/S and Fritz Hansen through Skandinavisk Holding A/S. ==History== The company was founded in 1887. On his mother's and stepfather's death, Christen Wither Obel took the factory over in 1828, changing its name to C.W. Obel. Under Obel's leadership, the factory became the city's main employer, a position it maintained for many years. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Erhvervsdrivende, deres ansatte og andre personligheder )〕 In 1857, steam engines were introduced in the production and a production of cigars was set up. The factory was several times damaged by fires and a new factory was built on the outskirts of Aalborg in 1898- It was later expanded several times. In 1919, C.W. Obel opened a branch in Copenhagen. In 1937, the company was converted into a family-owned ''aktieselskab'' and the Copenhagen branch moved into newly acquired premises in Obels Gård at Vestergade No. 2. Det Obelske Familiefond was established in 1956. In 1961, C.W. Obel merged with Chr. Augustinus Fabrikker and R. Færchs Fabrikker under the name Skandinavisk Tobakskompagni. In 1971, C.W. Obel A/S was listed on Copenhagen Stock Exchange but was delisted in 2001. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「C.W. Obel」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
