Regulated business succession in small and medium-sized companies remains a challenge. In many cases, continuing a family business within a family is not possible or reasonable. The owner of the Herzog Group was also faced with this challenge. Peter Gross Group has now taken over the business. Peter Gross Group is an association of companies that specialises in all areas of the construction world.
“With the acquisition of the company by Peter Gross Group, we have successfully managed to place it in competent hands,” says BBH partner and lawyer Wolfram von Blumenthal, who accompanied the transaction for the seller and served as a chair of the group’s supervisory board for several years. “When selling medium-sized family businesses, it is particularly important that the corporate cultures are compatible. This is especially true for the Herzog Group, founded in 1889, and the Peter Gross Group, established in 1885.”
