LOOKING FOR
ARKAD takes a majority stake in medium-sized companies where we see significant potential for value growth. Companies that are interesting for us have an established and sustainable business model and operate in a structurally stable or growing market segment. It is very important for us that we understand the business model of each investment and that it has already had positive earnings power in the past.
We invest in companies with a profitable turnover of over € 10 million that are based in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, UK or Spain.
​
We believe that we are a suitable partner for entrepreneurs and companies in the following situations:
​
Succession solutions
Management buyout
Growth capital
Carve-out
A company acquisition by Arkad gives each investment financial resources to accelerate organic growth and make additional acquisitions. We see ourselves as partners and catalysts for growth.

OFFER
PARTNERSHIP
We want to create sustainable values and added value for everyone involved. This requires a partnership, value-oriented cooperation and long-term mutual commitment. We stand for flat hierarchies and short decision-making paths.
Entrepreneurial thinking and a from-entrepreneur-to-entrepreneur culture describes a collaboration with ARKAD.
NEW MARKETS
As a partner to management, you can help to open up new markets and advance topics such as internationalization.
We have already played a leading role in processes such as the opening of new locations overseas or the entry into new future markets such as the hydrogen market, and we know which success factors are important.
M&A
In addition to promoting organic growth, we offer companies an acceleration of inorganic growth. The management of ARKAD has many years of intensive experience in the acquisition of medium-sized companies.
When it comes to company acquisitions, starting with the identification and due diligence of target companies through to the negotiation and structuring of the purchase agreements, we can bring our complementary strengths to management profitably.
DIGITALIZATION
The management of ARKAD has extensive experience in the successful and efficient introduction of the latest IT solutions in the context of digitization.
We can help companies benefit from digitization and the associated savings in resources and costs. With the correct application of modern IT tools in areas such as product development, resource management and controlling, hidden potential can be unlocked.
UNCOMPLICATED
FAST
FAIR
As a lean medium-sized company, we offer a quick purchase process of 3-6 months between the first contact and the closing. We also typically do not involve other consultants in a due diligence process, which ensures a fast and noiseless transaction process.
