IMAP advises Horst Pöppel on the sale of its fuel service and distribution business to AUCTUS Capital Partners

IMAP advised the shareholders of Horst Pöppel Logistik und Transport GmbH & Co. KG, Regensburg, one of the leading German fuel service and distribution companies, on the sale of a majority shareholding to funds of the private equity sponsor AUCTUS Capital Partners AG, Munich, as part of the succession planning of the company’s shareholder family. The former majority shareholder, Mrs. Monika Zollner, has reinvested in the business in order to continue to support the upcoming transformation of Horst Pöppel in a changing market over the next few years. The transaction is still subject to the fulfilment of certain closing conditions, which are expected to take effect until Q2-2022.
