BOELS & Partners' CEO Yvonne Boels states: "Especially the tradition of BÄRO, as well as the high-quality products, have aroused our interest in the company. We are confident that we will find the right strategic direction to bring BÄRO back to its former strength. The feedback we have received from customers is positive. We will use our years of restructuring experience to restore the BÄRO brand to its former glory. In doing so, we must and will work hard to justify the trust of customers, suppliers and employees".
