Beyond Capital Partners GmbH (“BCP”) advised Beyond Capital Partners Fund II on the acquisition of a 75% stake in Frankfurt based Xortec GmbH (“Xortec”). The transaction was closed in January 2021.
Xortec is a leading value-added distributor of integrated video surveillance and data communication solutions. The focus of Xortec lies in the distribution of such professional equipment and a broad, accompanying range of services. Historically, Beyond Capital Partners already acquired two value-added IT distributors for its portfolio and hence, convinced the selling founders of Xortec with BCP´s successful and proven growth strategy approach.
The decision to opt for Beyond Capital Partners as new majority shareholder of Xortec is best described from Hubert Irka, Managing Director and Co-Founder of Xortec: “We were looking for a trustworthy partner with a same-eye-level-attitude and found that party in Beyond Capital Partners who convinced us through the positive experience gained during the transaction process”.
“Xortec as established and professional B2B servicer in the video surveillance and data communication solutions segment is known as being one of the fastest growing companies in its field in Germany and stands for many years for drive and quality. We are pleased to accompany the journey towards the next growth level together with the two founders. In the fragmented competitive landscape, we see a great opportunity to grow Xortec in the coming years both through a focused buy-and-build strategy and a broadened service portfolio and new customers across Europe to become one of the leading companies in the GSA region” states Christoph D. Kauter, Founder and Managing Partner of Beyond Capital Partners.

Holger Grelck Forstbaumschulen is one of the leading German forest nurseries for the cultivation of premium forest seedlings and grows many millions of seedlings annually on more than 100 hectares, on which a wide range of tree species, including sweet chestnut, oak, spruce, service tree and Douglas fir, are nursed. The forest tree nursery has been supplying municipalities, states as well as other nurseries and private forest owners since 1938 and has grown continuously in recent years. Our location in Halstenbek is the largest forest tree nursery region in Germany and is considered the “cradle of the forest” due to the fertile soil and optimal microclimatic conditions.
Forest tree nurseries are an important subgroup of tree nurseries and operate around 12% of Germany’s total tree nursery area. Overall, forest nurseries play a central role in the fight against climate change, as they are an integral part of the reforestation of German forests. At the same time, they enable companies to become more sustainable and achieve climate targets. Demand for seedlings for forestry plants has risen accordingly. The German forest relieves the atmosphere of 62 million tons of CO2 every year.
The aim is to further accelerate the impressive growth of Holger Grelck Forstbaumschulen together with Beyond Capital Partners and to continue its expansion through selective acquisitions.
