Well-established specialized management consulting firm for freight forwarding and logistics

A 61.3% majority stake is for sale in a management consulting firm that has been in business for over 16 years and specializes in freight forwarding and logistics companies. The GmbH, which operates nationwide, generates an average annual revenue of approximately €560,000 (2021–2025) with a staff of 2.4 full-time equivalents. Its consulting services focus on business management (costing, planning, profit and loss statements, digitalization), leadership, organization, and strategy, as well as succession and M&A processes. The company operates using a standardized, results-oriented business model. Compensation is primarily based on flat-rate, target-based fees (value-based fees) rather than daily rates—a clear unique selling point in the market. This is based on a consulting and success system developed over many years, featuring significant intangible assets, including a reference book, software tools, a nationwide cost database, a trade journal, ERFA groups, seminars, and an established brand. The system offers high repeatability, scalability, and minimal systemic dependence on specific individuals. Succession: The majority shareholder is stepping down completely. The co-shareholder (38.7%) will remain involved in day-to-day operations but will not have overall responsibility. A structured handover over 12–24 months, including the transfer of client relationships, market presence, and knowledge and methodology as part of the structured transition. Seeking: An operationally active, entrepreneurially minded successor (entrepreneur, executive, or MBI). Location-independent, operating nationwide.

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.
