What we look for
We acquire healthy, established mid-sized companies whose owners are looking for a succession solution – or who want to place a smaller business unit in good hands.

What makes a company interesting to us
Figures are a starting point. What counts are the qualities that have made a company strong over the years.
Stable earnings
A business model that has proven itself over several years and generates sustainable profits.
Loyal customer relationships
Long-standing customers who come back by conviction – without excessive dependence on individual buyers.
A clear market position
A niche, a particular quality or a service that customers deliberately choose you for.
A team that takes responsibility
Employees and managers who want to carry and develop the company after the handover.
For M&A advisers, banks and network partners
Are you advising on a mandate that fits our profile? We are glad to be involved early. We review documents promptly and confidentially, sign a non-disclosure agreement upfront and give you clear feedback. Please add us to your list of prospective buyers.
For the financing of future acquisitions, we welcome conversations with banks that provide acquisition financing for mid-sized companies.

A first conversation is confidential and without obligation – even if your plans are at an early stage.
