German tuning house Gemballa is a company based in Leonberg near Stuttgart, Germany, which was founded by and named after Uwe Gemballa in 1981. In May 2010, the Gemballa factory was seized by German authorities and shut down following the disappearance of Uwe Gemballa who was later found dead. Gemballa was in financial trouble, and it's believed that his murder was a result of a money-laundering operation. CEO Andreas Schwarz and investor Steffen Korbach were able to buy the brand rights and name rights from Gemballa in August 2010 under the new name Gemballa GmbH. In 2016 Steffen Korbach became the sole CEO of the company.

The buyer is responsible for shipping, handling, and fees.
