Buildings & Infrastructure

Building technology, fire protection, restoration and property management. In these markets investors look specifically for well-run regional businesses.

Many buildings in Germany need to be modernised, maintained and inspected, year after year. That is why buyers look for businesses that do this work reliably and have looked after their clients for years.

That is exactly what I look at before I approach you. And I only get in touch when an investor is a genuine fit for your company.

Why this market is consolidating

Buildings and networks need to be modernised, maintained and inspected, while skilled workers are scarce. Many businesses are small and regional. Buyers therefore build regional groups in which businesses share staff, purchasing and administration.
