Gietz reports that it has taken over the majority shares of MABEG Systems GmbH as part of a succession plan.
Mabeg, founded in 1946, has been managed by Jens Gebel, CEO and Michael Grübel, CFO, as managing partners since 2009. In 2011, Daniel Burkhardt, CMO, also joins the management team as Managing Director and partner. After almost 10 years together, Gebel and Grübel are handing over their shares to Gietz Deutschland GmbH, which becomes the majority shareholder. Burkhardt is keeping his shares.
Gebel is relinquishing his management role and will continue at Mabeg as Director Operations. Grübel will remain Managing Director and CFO until his departure in mid-2021, ensuring a smooth transition. Burkhardt will continue to run Mabeg as Managing Director and CEO. This ensures continuity and the important connections to partners, customers and suppliers.
“As a medium-sized Swiss mechanical engineering company, it is of course a big step and responsibility to make an acquisition in Germany,” explains Hansjörg Gietz. “For both companies, this is a clear sign of further development and growth. Both companies are active in the high-quality packaging segment, so we can jointly offer our customers comprehensive concepts. I am pleased that we succeeded in taking over the majority of MABEG as part of this succession plan.”
