We lead your company as successor
With our expertise in processes, digitalisation and growth, your business succession is in the right hands with us.
»We must not allow the values of solid, owner-managed companies in Germany to be destroyed just because there is no succession in place.«Marcel NölleManaging Partner
What we want to be measured by.
When solid family businesses close because no successor can be found, Germany as a business location loses substance. That drives us — in every decision.
Forward-looking
We assess our business activities with an eye on the future and do not speculate short-term on possible developments.
Responsible
As an employer, we see ourselves as responsible for our companies. We do not separate investment from responsibility.
Flexible
Predefined, rigid structures and processes do not fit the dynamic environment of entrepreneurs and their companies. That is why we deliberately avoid a ready-made mindset and generic concepts.
Active
We do not manage investments. We lead people and companies into the future — actively, every day and in close dialogue with employees and managers.
Entrepreneurial
We think like entrepreneurs, not like a financial investor. Running companies is our strength. Our focus is not on preparing figures day in, day out or on strategies detached from practice.
A life's work is not taken over on the side.
Taking over a company is not the same as continuing a life's work. We accompany the companies we choose into the future — with prospects for all employees.
- We value a high-quality foundation
- We deal with you as equals
- We look at your company's long-term development potential
- We organise a joint transition with you
- We keep the workforce on — with your support
- Our focus: manufacturing industries such as metalworking, (special) machine building and plant engineering
How a handover works with us.
For most owners, a sale happens once in a lifetime — and the tension is correspondingly high. That is why we keep the path there manageable:
Confidential preliminary review
After signing a non-disclosure agreement, we use standard documents such as the management accounts (P&L, balance sheets) to assess whether we can build a shared future through the sale of your company.
Getting to know each other & site visit
Most soft factors cannot be expressed in figures. A personal meeting and a visit to the company on site are a key cornerstone of our assessment.
Due diligence & closing
A thorough review — for example of contracts with suppliers and customers — leads to a neutral valuation. On this basis, seller and buyer agree on the joint closing steps.
What we commit to.
Continuity
Sustainable development and the continued existence of our companies are our fundamental principles.
Transparency
Transparent decision-making — and better prospects for all stakeholders: employees, suppliers and customers.
Growth
A strong, stable economic core as the basis for market expansion, modernisation and product diversification.
Partnership
Forward-looking partnership with employees, clients and advisers as the foundation of every collaboration.
Let's talk about the future of your company.
The first step is a conversation. Confidential, without obligation, with no broker in between.
