An internationally oriented production carve-out in serial off-site wood construction—positioned for independent further development—is for sale. The company develops and manufactures high-quality modular room units, hospitality cabins, mobile accommodations, and sauna solutions for commercial customers in several European markets.

Once the ramp-up is complete, the facility will have a capacity of up to 50 units per year even operating on a single-shift basis. The average net selling price ranges between EUR 60,000 and EUR 65,000 per unit. Additional shifts offer further potential for scaling up.

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.
