Peri Spiele was an Austrian board game, card game and playing card manufacturer based in Scharnstein in Upper Austria.
History
[edit | edit source]The firm was founded in 1959 by Erich Perner.[1] Later his son Wolfgang Perner became managing director. In 1984, a branch office was established in Switzerland in Goldach as PPG Perner Publishing Group.[2] In 1995, Peri employed a total of 73 people.[3] In February 1996, Peri had to file for bankruptcy and, in the same year, Wolfgang Perner founded Perner Produktions and so was able to continue with the brand of Peri Spiele. In 2004, the 28-man firm of Perner Produktions finally went into bankruptcy.[4]
