Investcorp has acquired a majority stake in Miebach, a German supply chain and logistics consultancy, further expanding its European private equity portfolio. 

The existing equity partnership will retain a significant minority stake, though financial terms of the deal remain undisclosed. The transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2025, pending regulatory approvals.

Miebach, founded in 1973 and headquartered in Frankfurt, provides global supply chain consulting, logistics, and material flow engineering. Operating in a €30bn market projected to grow at double-digit rates annually, the firm supports multinational blue-chip clients across various industries. Its services include supply chain strategy development, engineering design, and digital solutions for warehousing infrastructure.

Following the acquisition, Miebach will continue pursuing organic growth while implementing a focused mergers and acquisitions strategy.

“As a global leader in supply chain consulting, logistics, and material flow engineering, Miebach has established itself as the go-to partner for international clients seeking complex supply chain solutions,” said Yusef Al Yusef, global head of distribution at Investcorp.

Investcorp has invested approximately €2.1bn ($2.28bn) in European companies since 2012. The Miebach deal marks its fifth investment in the last 15 months, following acquisitions of SEC Newgate, Outcomes First Group, Stowe, and Epipoli.

With $55bn in assets under management, Investcorp aims to reach $100bn by expanding its presence across the Americas, Europe, and Asia. The firm sees supply chain consultancy as a high-growth sector, driven by increasing demand for resiliency, sustainability, digitalisation, and automation.

The acquisition reinforces Investcorp’s position in the global logistics and supply chain sector, capitalising on long-term industry tailwinds.
