We are an owner-managed investment company based in Frankfurt am Main that – through the funds it advises – acquires majority shareholdings in profitable Mittelstand companies in the DACH region with a focus on asset-light business models in the areas of B2B services, IT services, software, healthcare & well-being, lifestyle and entertainment.
Our goal is to continue the success story of German-speaking SMEs. Admittedly, a bold statement but this is precisely the driving principle since Beyond Capital Partners’ first acquisition in 2015. You could say it was about beyond just capital from the very beginning.
Our Social Responsibility
Our philosophy is to support lower-mid-cap DACH SMEs, to promote sustainable growth by integrating ESG criteria and to secure and to further develop the competitiveness of our entrepreneurs and their companies against the backdrop of macroeconomic and social challenges in a future-oriented manner.
For us, the principles for sustainable investment are therefore an elementary part of all business processes. Accordingly, ESG is integrated as one of the central points in our investment process. Only those companies that grant appropriate importance to the principles of sustainable management and accept the associated challenges will continue to compete in the future and develop successfully in a rapidly changing environment in the long term.
Our Track Record
Our investment focus is on the acquisition of majority shareholdings in successful Mittelstand companies in the revenue range of EUR 10 to 50 million, a historical profitability of at least EUR 1 million EBITDA and long-term growth potential within their competitive environment. Since 2015, we have gained the trust of institutional investors from Europe through several generations of funds. With 22 acquisitions, consisting of twelve platform investments, ten add-ons – including a fast-growing roll-up strategy – and two exits since 2015. The trusting and partnership-based cooperation at eye level with the founders, the management and other stakeholders is the most important prerequisite for us to be successful continuously and in the long term.
We Create Value Together
Many Mittelstand companies are facing profound technological, demographic, and social changes that are permanently changing their industry structure and market environment. Beyond Capital Partners’ approach as a private equity investor is to successfully accompany companies in coping with these demanding change processes through entrepreneurial thinking as well as pragmatic advice to the founders and their management and, last but not least, sufficient capital.
We see ourselves as creative idea generators, trustworthy and experienced sparring partners and, above all, as entrepreneurs from the heart.
“The financing of Beyond Capital Partners Fund II is partly made possible by the European Union’s financial support under the Equity Facility for Growth under Regulation (EU) No 1287/2013 of the European Union and of the Council establishing a Programme for the Competitiveness of Enterprises and Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (COSME) (2014-2020).”

Holger Grelck Forstbaumschulen ist eine der führenden deutschen Forstbaumschulen für den Anbau von Premium-Forstjungpflanzen und baut auf mehr als 100 Hektar jährlich viele Millionen Setzlinge an, die ein breites Spektrum an Baumarten, u.a. Esskastanie, Eiche, Fichte, Elsbeere und Douglasie, umfassen. Die Forstbaumschule beliefert seit 1938 Kommunen, Länder sowie weitere Baumschulen und private Waldbesitzer und ist in den vergangenen Jahren kontinuierlich gewachsen. Der Standort in Halstenbek ist die größte Forstbaumschulregion Deutschlands und gilt als die „Wiege des Waldes“ aufgrund des fruchtbaren Bodens und der optimalen mikroklimatischen Bedingungen.
Forstbaumschulen sind eine wichtige Untergruppe der Baumschulen und bewirtschaften rund 12 % der gesamten Baumschulflächen Deutschlands. Insgesamt spielen Forstbaumschulen eine zentrale Rolle im Kampf gegen den Klimawandel, denn sie sind integraler Bestandteil der Wiederaufforstung der deutschen Wälder. Gleichzeitig ermöglichen sie es Unternehmen, nachhaltiger zu werden und die Klimaziele zu erreichen. Dementsprechend hoch ist die Nachfrage nach Setzlingen für Forstpflanzen gestiegen. Der deutsche Wald entlastet die Atmosphäre jährlich um 62 Millionen Tonnen CO2.
Ziel ist es, gemeinsam mit Beyond Capital Partners das imposante Wachstum von Holger Grelck Forstbaumschulen weiter zu beschleunigen und durch selektive Zukäufe die Expansion fortzuführen.
