German conglomerate trading agricultural inputs, energy products and building materials, plus renewable-energy project development.
German conglomerate trading agricultural inputs, energy products and building materials, plus renewable-energy project development.
Earns thin margins on large volumes of grain, farm inputs, fuels and building materials that it buys and resells, so profit depends on volume and trading discipline. Solar and wind projects are developed and sold to investors, so renewables profit arrives in lumps. Farmers' Raiffeisen cooperatives are the largest shareholders, and the group has been in a financial restructuring since 2024.
In one line: A German diversified agribusiness/building-materials distributor.
Moat: none (scale, distribution). Broad regional distribution scale in agriculture/building materials, but a low-margin trading conglomerate facing financial distress/restructuring.
Headquarters: Munich, Germany · Founded: 1923
