Insolvency Proceedings of Hüffermann Group Opened – Hagedorn Group Acquires All Operating Business Units

Bremen, 08.12.2025

On 1 December 2025, the Local Court of Delmenhorst opened eleven insolvency proceedings in respect of the Hüffermann Group and appointed GÖRG partner Tim Beyer as insolvency administrator in each case. Following the successful conclusion of the investor process, the Hagedorn Group is acquiring all operating business units and locations. More than 500 jobs will be preserved.

Since the filing of the insolvency applications at the end of September, business operations have been fully maintained, ensuring that key structures, customer relationships and technical resources remained intact throughout. Once the transaction completes, the Hagedorn Group will continue all units without interruption.

“Securing all business units and taking on the entire workforce is a strong signal for employees, customers and partners,” says Christian Hülsewig, Managing Partner of the Hagedorn Group. “The Hüffermann teams bring exceptional technical expertise and extensive experience in crane and heavy‑load logistics.”

GÖRG partner and insolvency administrator Tim Beyer also emphasises the significance of the outcome: “Safeguarding all jobs across eleven legally distinct insolvency proceedings and parallel‑operating business units is an excellent result. With the Hagedorn Group, we have gained an investor who will assume all locations and continue operations reliably. My particular thanks go to the employees of the Hüffermann Group, who remained loyal to the companies despite the challenging circumstances and actively supported the continuation of operations. Without their commitment, this outcome would not have been possible.”

The acquisition strengthens the Hagedorn Group’s capacities in the field of crane and heavy‑load logistics and expands its presence across northern and eastern Germany. The newly integrated units complement the Group’s existing operational network.

The successful investor process was carried out jointly with Bernd Diepenseifen, KPMG Germany, Philipp Schmittner, Lukas Duhnkrack and their team.
