Of these companies, some operate one location, while 4% operate at least five locations.
With seven German and four international locations, io belongs to the latter group. Three of the German locations are in the most populous federal states (North Rhine-Westphalia, Bavaria, and Baden-Württemberg), as well as in Berlin and Rhineland-Palatinate.
