With ten qualified employees, the company boasts an experienced and dedicated team. In addition to the owner, there is already an effective second level of management, which includes a young master craftsman in training, ensuring a structured transition and the continuity of day-to-day operations. As a recognized training company, the firm continuously invests in the development of its own skilled workforce and benefits from high employee retention as well as an excellent reputation as an employer. The business model is characterized by a strong market position, high brand awareness, and long-standing relationships with clients and architects. A stable order book with a healthy project pipeline ensures reliable capacity utilization and offers the acquirer a solid foundation for the company’s further development. At the same time, ongoing trends toward energy-efficient construction and sustainable timber-frame building concepts open up attractive growth opportunities. The company also presents a solid financial picture. In recent years, revenue has ranged between approximately €1.3 million and €1.7 million. Normalized EBIT ranged—depending on project structure and fiscal year—between approximately €70,000 and €174,000. These results reflect the company’s sustainable profitability as well as the stability of its business model. Overall, this presents a rare opportunity to acquire an established timber construction company with an excellent reputation, a high level of technical expertise, a well-coordinated organization, and long-term market potential. The existing structures, the qualified workforce, and the stable market position create excellent conditions for the successful continuation and further expansion of the company.

Buying a company vs. buying a firm

Buying a company means acquiring an independent organizational unit that regularly carries out an economic activity. A company can consist of one or several business operations. An individual can also found such an independent unit if they regularly carry out an economic activity — in that case it is called a sole proprietorship. As a rule, sole proprietors don't have to register in the commercial register; without that registration, they don't legally count as a "firm." A trade name, colloquially a "firm," is the name under which a company or sole proprietor appears publicly and conducts its business. Buying "a firm" therefore technically means acquiring the company's name or trading name. In everyday use, though, it's used interchangeably with buying a company — i.e. acquiring the entire business.
