The Belgian construction and renovation group carries out projects for residential and commercial real estate. It combines an established and profitable core business with a young, already profitable growth company. Its operating activities are complemented by a real estate portfolio consisting of eight properties.

Our client is a medium-sized construction company with a long history and a strong regional presence. Since its founding, the company has evolved from a traditional construction firm into a modern general contractor specializing in building construction. Its operational focus is on challenging turnkey new-construction projects as well as the strategically important area of building renovation. The service portfolio includes, in particular, residential and commercial buildings, commercial real estate, social facilities, as well as hotel and vacation apartment complexes. In addition, the company carries out conversion, modernization, and renovation projects on existing buildings. A key differentiator is its professional organizational structure. The company has dedicated departments for cost estimation, BIM, project management, turnkey construction, building renovation, work planning, quality assurance, lean management, controlling, administration, and corporate digitization. As a result, the company is significantly more focused on project management, planning, and coordination than a traditional, trade-based construction firm. Of particular note is the company’s existing digital expertise. The BIM method is used in cost estimation and project planning to digitally model construction projects at an early stage, identify interfaces, and plan costs and schedules with greater reliability. In addition, the company employs lean management on its construction sites. The company enjoys a strong reputation in the regional market as a reliable, transparent, and collaborative contractual partner. Its market position is further bolstered by several awards, including recognition as a Top Innovator, Employer of the Future, and Construction Company of the Year. Long-standing relationships with investors, project developers, clients, and subcontractors form an important foundation for its stable market position. In 2025, the company employed approximately 50 people. The workforce consists of qualified construction managers, project managers, cost estimators, and BIM specialists, as well as commercial and administrative staff. A well-established second tier of management and low turnover in key positions create a stable operational foundation for a successor. The current order backlog is a key value driver. According to the borrower’s report, the company has a weighted order backlog of approximately 194 million EUR through 2029. Based on this, the calculated average annual revenue amounts to approximately 48.5 million EUR. For 2026, the plan calls for total revenue of approximately 52.8 million EUR. The sustainably derived EBITDA is approximately 970 TEUR. The main operating premises are privately owned by the shareholder and are leased by the company. They include, among other things, office space, a construction yard, and a warehouse, thereby providing a functional foundation for the company’s current size and its future operational development. The sale to an external successor is being pursued for retirement reasons and is a high priority. The goal is to ensure the long-term continuity of this established company and to consistently leverage its existing growth potential. Opportunities exist, in particular, in expanding the existing building renovation segment, strengthening sales and brand positioning, utilizing BIM expertise, and further professionalizing corporate management. The ideal successor should think entrepreneurially, possess social awareness, and cultivate a collaborative leadership style. A background in construction engineering is advantageous but not mandatory. An entrepreneur with a business-oriented background may also be considered, provided they respect the existing corporate culture and work with the team to further develop the company.
