Sound long-term investments
We believe in treating everyone with respect and responsibility.
This includes owners, society, and employees connected to our businesses. We use our knowledge and skills carefully when looking at opportunities to buy other companies.
Our focus is on finding local, medium-sized companies that care about making great products and managing things well, just like we do. If a company is facing challenges and needs help to keep going, we’re ready to make an offer to buy it.
We promise to be honest and clear in our offer, and we would be honored to take on the responsibility ourselves. We’re committed to being transparent, professional, honest, and respectful in all our dealings.
This guides us every step of the way as we work with businesses that are ready to grow and make positive changes.

Preserving land is our enduring commitment. The Holm family has owned German forest and agricultural land since the early 20th century, seeing it as stewardship.
In forestry, we focus on generative practices, certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (PEFC). This includes harvesting single trees, sometimes with horses, leaving the rest standing. Our aim is natural mixed-tree forests, balancing animals and the ecosystem.
In agriculture, sustainability is our key. Crop rotations like wheat, rapeseed, barley, corn, and beans ensure maximum sustainability. Our commitment extends to re-naturalization initiatives, like the “Lachsbach” creek project, which turns fields into ecological areas for vegetation, insects, and fauna.
We also build hedges against soil erosion, providing habitat for birds and animals.

Our dedication lies in bringing you the best food – think slow, artisan, premium quality, and nutrition.
With a rich history of over 60 years in food production, we view company ownership as a form of stewardship. It’s about looking out for our local employees, suppliers, community, and customers.
We believe in the saying “you are what you eat,” and that’s why our focus is on providing food that’s not just a meal but a wholesome experience, ensuring that every bite reflects our commitment to quality and care.
Envision slow, artisanal, premium quality, and nutrition. Connect with us to be a part of this.

Bempflinger Lebensmittel GmbH
Back in 1946, the Dr. Peikert and Langer families arrived in Bempflingen as refugees. They started a special business, turning sugar beets into yummy syrup. This not only tasted great but also made sure they could keep going. Then, in 1950, the “real” Bempflinger company era began. As time went on, the company changed with the world around it. They made customers happy and gave people what they needed. In the 1970s, Schwartau took over the company, and Werner Holm was a big part of that.
Nowadays, Bempflinger Lebensmittel GmbH is all about tradition, new ideas, and a super team of over 130 workers. Every day, they work really hard to make customers happy. They come up with cool ideas and create products that fit what people like now.In 2007, Werner Holm took charge and saw the potential in pasta sauces. Then in 2013, Mirko Sattler joined as the boss, using his smarts to make the company even better. He’s been the main partner since 2014. In 2022, Katrin Holm took over her husband’s part, making sure the family business keeps going strong and looking ahead with excitement.
