Continuing success together
As an investment company, we invest in medium-sized enterprises with a focus on the German industrial sector and develop them sustainably as majority shareholders under the umbrella of the POSSEHL Group of Companies. We see ourselves as specialists in succession planning and offer tailored solutions for owner-managed and family-owned businesses. As part of the financially strong POSSEHL Group, we are financially independent. Our primary goal is to continue and further develop entrepreneurial legacies successfully and over the long term in the spirit of their founders.
Long-term
Our focus is not on short-term value increases, but rather on the long-term preservation and sustainable development of the companies.
Future-oriented
We are partners for the future. We bring in all our experience and develop an individual business strategy for each of our portfolio companies.
Independent
As part of the financially strong POSSEHL Group, we are financially independent. This allows us to finance acquisitions entirely with equity, repay debts, and offer PMB companies a very high degree of flexibility.
Socially committed
We take responsibility. Our Possehl Foundation supports charitable organizations, the arts and sciences, people in social need, and the cityscape of Lübeck.
Founded in 2009, we are a subsidiary of the internationally active POSSEHL Group based in Lübeck, and we are committed to a long tradition of entrepreneurship. For 175 years, POSSEHL has stood for entrepreneurship, diversity, innovation, and responsibility. Since 1919, the sole shareholder has been the non-profit POSSEHL Foundation. This legal structure enables the financial independence of the POSSEHL Group and forms the foundation for long-term entrepreneurial success.

Philosophy and values
As a long-term oriented investor in medium-sized enterprises, we are convinced that strong independence, collaborative leadership, the preservation of corporate identity, and lean structures form the ideal foundation for sustainable business success.
Best owner approach
We acquire only those companies for which we are convinced that we are the best long-term owner.
Entrepreneurial independence
As shareholders, we sustainably develop companies while preserving their corporate identity.
Collaborative partnership
In addition to the support provided by the PMB team, the management of the companies benefits from the valuable expertise of the Possehl Group.
Grounded and lean
We and our companies act pragmatically, plan solidly and realistically, and benefit from lean, investor-independent structures.
The PMB investments
Guided by our core principles of stability, future perspective, and responsible entrepreneurship, we have acquired selected medium-sized companies from a variety of industries in recent years.
OUR PORTFOLIO
PMB as an incubator
Our goal is to create business units for the Possehl Group through a well-considered buy-and-build strategy. Within a larger network, our companies can realize their full potential and leverage synergies. In doing so, we identify industries and technological areas with high future potential and continuously develop them. We have successfully demonstrated this multiple times.
