XXXLutz acquires a stake in Moebel.de

Prosiebensat1 has sold its shares in the Moebel.de platform. The XXXLutz Group takes over and invests in the Hamburg-based start-up.
XXXLutz is taking over the shares of the Nucom Group in the Moebel.de platform; the parties have agreed not to disclose the price. Back in 2013, the Nucom Group, formerly Seven Ventures and belonging to Prosiebensat1, invested in Mobel.de, which was founded in 2007. According to the company's own information, the site offers three million products and has five million visitors per month.
Mobel.de was only launched in the Netherlands last year, and the service has also been available in France since 2016.
"With the exit of the investor, the opportunity for the investment has arisen for the XXXLutz Group," says XXXLutz CEO Alois Kobler. "No operational activities will be taken over from our side with this investment. The existing management under CEO Arne Stock will continue to operate the neutral platform as before and will further internationalise it in the following years", the CEO continues.
