Munich — Silver Invest­ment Part­ners has sold its stake in Land­bä­cke­rei SOMMER, the largest regio­nal quality bakery in Sauer­land and the surroun­ding area with around 60 stores and nearly 500 employees, to finan­cial inves­tor Auctus Capi­tal Part­ners. Network Corpo­rate Finance exclu­si­vely advi­sed the owners and the company on the transaction.

Tran­sac­tion
With the acqui­si­tion of SOMMER, AUCTUS plans to accom­pany the further growth of the bakery chain. In addi­tion to orga­nic deve­lo­p­ment, the growth stra­tegy also focu­ses on regio­nal acqui­si­ti­ons. Barbara Zeyß remains with SOMMER as Mana­ging Direc­tor and conti­nues to expand her share­hol­ding in the company.

The company
SOMMER was foun­ded in 1927 in Eslohe-Bremke and has estab­lished itself as a regio­nal quality leader in the Sauer­land region. The company opera­tes loca­ti­ons in single loca­ti­ons as well as in the fore­courts of high-traf­fic super­mar­kets and hyper­mar­kets. Follo­wing the take­over by Silver Invest­ment Part­ners and with the arri­val of Ms. Barbara Zeyß as mana­ging part­ner, there was a stra­te­gic realignment of the branch port­fo­lio and the intro­duc­tion of manage­ment and control­ling systems. These measu­res have impro­ved proces­ses and produc­tion plan­ning and signi­fi­cantly increased SOMMER’s results. Today, SOMMER serves both the bakery and quick service markets with its wide range of bread, pastries and snacks.
