The outcome

Michael Harren, a dedicated entrepreneur, built a successful online retail business with his wife. After 12 years of tireless work, he decided to sell the company to pursue new projects. Harren chose CARL for its efficient, technology-driven approach. The buyer needed to be experienced in e-commerce and logistics, as Harren had optimized the company's processes over the years. The collaboration with CARL and Peter Diekmann from Diekmann & Collegen ensured a smooth conversion to a GmbH and successful due diligence. The company was sold to undropped GmbH, with an earn-out deal that motivates Harren to actively support the transition.

Dank des engen Zusammenspiels zwischen uns, meinem Transaktionsberaters - der im gesamten Prozess ein verlässlicher Ansprechpartner war - und CARL bin ich zuversichtlich, dass mein Unternehmen zukünftig in guten Händen ist. Ich freue mich darauf mich nun erst einmal den Dingen zu widmen, die in den letzten Jahren zu kurz gekommen sind.
