The company combines artisanal delicatessen products, high-quality cheese specialties, and homemade cakes in a unique retail concept. Of particular note is the mobile specialty market cart, which the company has used successfully for many years to participate in weekly markets. In addition, a modern online store has been established, through which the company is already generating its first Germany-wide sales. //// KEY FEATURES //// 1.))

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.
