Professional Summary
I am an entrepreneur and business professional based in Berlin, Germany, with a background in ecommerce, marketplace operations, international trade, digital marketing, and last-mile delivery.
I have hands-on experience building and operating an international import/export business, managing marketplace activities, supplier sourcing, pricing, customer acquisition, and commercial performance. I have also worked directly in last-mile delivery in Germany, giving me practical exposure to delivery operations and the local market.
My MBA background, combined with experience in data analysis and KPI-driven management, allows me to evaluate businesses from both an operational and financial perspective. I focus on understanding revenue quality, margins, cash flow, operating costs, customer concentration, working capital, and opportunities for operational improvement.
I can help businesses improve performance through process optimisation, KPI management, cost control, sales and customer acquisition, marketplace growth, supplier management, and operational efficiency.

Investment Criteria
I am currently looking to acquire or partner with an established business in Germany and bring an owner-operator approach to its growth. I am particularly interested in established service-based, logistics, B2B, and franchise businesses where hands-on management can create sustainable growth.
I look for businesses with stable and recurring cash flow, proven demand, healthy margins, and clear potential for operational improvement and growth. I particularly value businesses with a strong customer base, low customer concentration, manageable working-capital requirements, and limited dependence on the owner.
I am especially interested in service-based businesses, logistics and last-mile operations, B2B services, established franchises, and businesses with recurring/repeat customers. I also like businesses where an owner-operator can improve profitability through better processes, KPI management, sales, and cost control.
I generally prefer businesses with tangible operating history and transparent financials rather than highly speculative or trend-dependent businesses. I am less interested in businesses with heavy upfront CapEx, weak margins, unpredictable revenue, high customer concentration, or businesses that depend entirely on the founder's personal relationships or expertise.
Before investing, I would typically look at EBITDA and normalised EBITDA, free cash flow, customer retention, revenue concentration, working capital, CapEx requirements, debt capacity, valuation, and the potential for sustainable growth.
Businesses I particularly like include logistics/delivery companies, commercial cleaning, B2B services, maintenance services, and established franchise concepts. I am less interested in highly speculative startups, restaurants with high operating complexity, and businesses with significant inventory or CapEx requirements without strong recurring cash flow.
