Hamburg

Profitable street food restaurant seeks owner for its flagship location in Hamburg

Welcome to one of the first Colombian dining concepts in Germany! Are you ready for the next step in your career and interested in running an established, successful dining concept? This concept offers you a unique opportunity to become a co-owner and be part of our success story, while also reaping the rewards of our years of hard work as a successor! WHY Colombian street food? South American cuisine is growing in popularity and fills a previously untapped niche in the restaurant industry. The concept isn’t just a restaurant—we offer a unique culinary experience unlike anything else currently available in Germany. With our Colombian street food, freshly prepared and as authentic as it is in South America, we’re right on trend. This is exactly where we come in—and you can be part of this exciting journey! In this case, it would work almost like a franchise—only better—and with one very decisive advantage: You’ll take over the flagship location, which has been successfully established for five years, has a loyal customer base, and has been professionally positioned by our branding agency. For you, this means: You can hit the ground running right away without having to overcome the typical challenges of a startup! A unique advantage over “regular” franchisees. YOUR BENEFITS: - Established brand: The restaurant has built a strong reputation through successful marketing and an average Google rating of 4.7 stars. We have a loyal customer base and are ideally positioned to expand throughout Germany. - The major hurdles associated with starting a restaurant business—such as finding a location, extensive renovations, the very time-consuming process of hiring staff, establishing a system, and setting up the location—are COMPLETELY ELIMINATED. Plus, the investment is even lower. - Get off to a profitable start: You’ll benefit from 90% of the revenue and a fully equipped operation—from furniture and equipment to top-tier suppliers and an optimized system for daily operations. - Marketing support: As a branding and marketing agency, we handle the majority of your marketing for you. This allows you to focus on day-to-day operations while we regularly deliver well-thought-out marketing strategies and branding optimizations. - Proven Concept: You’ll take over an established restaurant business and benefit from our strong brand identity. Our well-thought-out marketing system and our experience pave the way for your success. - Partnership on Equal Footing: You’re a partner, but you’re not alone. We’re always on-site at the start, working hand in hand with you and supporting you in leading your team and efficiently managing the location. Our goal is to make history together—not just to establish a purely business-based partnership. WHY NOW? After five years of successful establishment and an extensive rebranding, the restaurant is ready to expand. But to take this step, we need someone who can take over day-to-day operations, lighten our load, and thus pave the way for further expansion. WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR: - An entrepreneurial-minded partner who is passionate about the restaurant industry and brand building. - Someone with leadership skills and empathy for the team, who is capable of leading and developing a motivated and high-performing staff. - A visionary who recognizes the potential of this unique concept and may even be interested in opening a second location at some point. - Someone who isn’t just a managing partner, but a member of the family who will work with us on our growth strategy and help us continue writing our success story. VAMOS! If you see the opportunity to get started with a unique concept, an established team, and marketing support—and to become part of a success story—we look forward to hearing from you! Hopefully, we’ll see you soon for a tropical shake or a Café Colombiano.

Event Technology Company

For more than 16 years, Outdoor Cine GmbH has been one of the leading providers of professional event technology and has a solid financial foundation. In particular, the company has earned an excellent reputation as a reliable partner for open-air movie events and large-format film projections. The company’s core business focuses on the planning and execution of open-air movie events. The company has an extensive inventory of professional event technology, enabling film screenings on screens ranging in size from 15 m² to 264 m². Its fixed assets include, among other things, high-quality digital projection technology, modern sound systems, and extensive event equipment. In addition to its core business, the company has three modern LED walls. Two of these systems are mounted on mobile trailers, allowing for particularly flexible use. Another LED wall is operated using a Baubuch-certified truss system. The systems are successfully used at open-air movie screenings as well as at sporting events, public viewings, and other outdoor events— particularly in the greater Hamburg area. Operational execution is ensured by a technical manager who has been a permanent employee for 16 years, as well as a long-standing, well-coordinated team of freelance event technicians . This structure enables a high degree of flexibility while maintaining lean fixed costs. The core business is concentrated in the months of May through September and operates at a very high capacity utilization during this period. This seasonal focus makes the company particularly attractive to strategic acquirers whose own capacities have so far been underutilized during the summer months and who can generate additional revenue through the acquisition. With a customer base built up over decades, several multi-year contracts, an outstanding market position, and a modern, high-quality technical infrastructure , Outdoor Cine GmbH offers excellent conditions for a successful business succession. The acquirer will take over a fully operational company with ongoing business operations, established business processes, and extensive and valuable fixed assets. All operational processes are structured and can be continued without interruption. The company is located in Halstenbek. Of particular note are the excellent transportation connections to Hamburg and the immediate proximity to the highway interchanges.

Established dental practice specializing in implantology in a central location | digitally equipped | guided transition

A long-established solo practice in a central, accessible location is for sale. The practice features three treatment rooms, modern digital equipment, and a very solid financial position. The practice owner will actively assist with the transition and will remain available as a staff dentist and mentor through the end of 2026. The practice is particularly well-suited for dentists who are planning to start their own practice and wish to take over a well-organized operation. Location and Surroundings: The practice is located in a vibrant mid-sized town at the foot of the Harz Mountains, offering a high quality of life, a stable economic structure, and excellent infrastructure. The area features a hospital, various schools (including private schools), a university of applied sciences, and numerous recreational and cultural offerings. The strong tourism industry, with very high annual visitor numbers, along with a large number of medium-sized employers, ensures a stable patient base and above-average purchasing power. Practice Premises and Lease Agreement: The practice is located in modern, light-filled, and barrier-free premises with approximately 150 square meters of floor space in a central location. Dedicated patient parking spaces and two underground parking spots are available. Additionally, a laboratory area in the basement can be used if needed. A new commercial lease agreement with a term of seven years and an annual renewal option is being offered to the successor. The net base rent is expected to be approximately 2,000 euros per month. Any existing obligation to restore the premises to its original condition will be waived upon signing the new lease agreement. Facilities and Digitalization: The practice has three treatment rooms, including two standard treatment rooms and a separate preventive care room. The practice operates entirely digitally: digital X-rays, a CEREC CAD/CAM system, practice-wide networking, and fully digital patient records. Established practice software is used in all treatment rooms. Digital patient education and medical history tools are integrated into the workflows. The rooms are modern, bright, accessible, and functionally tailored to existing processes. Seller and Transition Model: The owner wishes to transfer the practice into responsible hands and places great importance on continuity in patient care. He offers a structured onboarding program, including a clear mentoring role and employment as a dentist through the end of 2026 (expected). The goal is a seamless transition without any disruption in the experience for patients and the team. Asking Price: An independent appraisal confirms a practice value of approximately 280,000 euros. The owner’s asking price is 160,000 euros (negotiable) and is deliberately set at a moderate level to make it easier for a committed successor to start their own practice. Given the practice’s earnings and existing structures, it offers an attractive opportunity with manageable risk. Target Buyer Profile: We are seeking a dentist who has a clear desire to own their own practice and enjoys building long-term relationships with patients. Ideally, the candidate should have an interest in implantology and modern, digitally supported dentistry, or the desire to develop expertise in these areas. Thanks to the planned mentorship, well-established processes, and solid financial foundation, the practice is particularly well-suited for making the transition from salaried employment to self-employment.

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.
