Superstructure for commercial use? Sale? Office? Exhibition?
Commercial use, no further information came with it, probably pure transport.

Carrosseriewerke Aarburg?

Unfortunately, I did not find what I was looking for and have to guess a little.
First try: Wenger, Basel

Not one of those that come to mind immediately, it will need some research to find it.

That's the solution. A similar bodywork by Graf was also used for RVs and promotional vehicles.
The chassis was probably a Hanomag Matador E, but I don't know for sure.
