PHM Group strengthens its portfolio
                     through the acquisition of ImmoKonzept Facility

We supported the entire sales process – from the initial idea right through to the signing of the contract at the Notary.

The company ImmoKonzept Facility:

ImmoKonzept Facility GmbH, based in Bochum, was founded in 2010, initially as a sole trader in the heart of the Ruhr region. Over the past few years, the one-man business has grown into an established provider of full-service building management and services, with around 70 employees and offices in the Ruhr region and in Hamburg.

ImmoKonzept Facility offers comprehensive property management services – ranging from property management and facility management, through to technical maintenance and caretaker services, right up to facade cleaning and the maintenance of green and hard landscaping. Its clients include, amongst others, (property) investment companies, family offices and property development companies, which have benefited from a bespoke all-in-one solution and consistently positive business growth in recent years.

The challenge

For the company’s founder and owner, the priority was to put succession planning in place with the aim of handing over his life’s work to the right people at an early stage. It was important to him to find an investor who was a good fit both personally and strategically, and who would secure the team’s long-term future.

The focus was therefore on identifying a partner who would further develop the proven business model, strengthen the team and open up additional growth prospects for the company. At the same time, the founder should be able to remain involved as an advisor even after the transaction, thereby ensuring continuity for clients and staff.

The solution: phm Group as a partner

As part of a structured process, potential investors were approached who could benefit from a complementary facility management business within their group. As an independent business unit with a broad range of services and an established customer base, ImmoKonzept Facility offered clear added value for strategic buyers. Through the managing director of our Finnish company in Helsinki, contact was established with PHM Deutschland GmbH, a company within the Finnish PHM Group.

The PHM Group brings together more than 250 locally and regionally active building management service providers across several European countries, thereby offering ImmoKonzept Facility a strong network, economies of scale and international prospects. Through this merger, ImmoKonzept Facility becomes part of an internationally positioned group that is also looking to expand its presence in the Ruhr region.

The result: a sustainable succession plan, security for the workforce and additional development opportunities for the company.
