Teltec AG, a trading group for professional film and television technology in the German-speaking market and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Avemio AG has increased its indirect company share in Janusz Rupik Professionelle Videotechnik Polska Sp. z o.o. , Siemianowice Slaskie, Poland. Avemio already held a 48.77 percent stake in PVP via the wholly-owned Teltec subsidiary VDH Video Data Handels GmbH, Hamburg. As a result of the current transaction, the indirect shareholding of Teltec AG and thus of Avemio AG in PVP increases to 95.30 percent. The remaining PVP shares are held by PVP founder and managing director Janusz Rupik, who, as a proven industry expert, will support the Avemio Group in a leading position, particularly in the expansion of the entire group’s trading business in Eastern Europe.
Janusz Rupik Professional Video Technology is a leading trading group for professional film and television technology in Poland with an established market positioning since its foundation in 1998. In the financial year 2021, PVP generated a turnover of more than 20 million zloty, which corresponds to approximately 4.3 million euros. The increase in the stake in PVP is part of the Avemio Group’s international expansion strategy. The Eastern European market in particular offers high growth potential due to the highly fragmented retail landscape in the professional film and television technology sector, which Avemio intends to exploit through active market consolidation.
Ralf P. Pfeffer, CEO of Avemio AG, explains: “PVP and Teltec already have a long-standing partnership. The acquisition of the majority is the logical step in a successful joint development over many years. It is the starting signal for the overdue market consolidation, which was delayed by the coronavirus crisis. For the Avemio Group, this is the first step in continuing our successful track record in consolidating the German-speaking region across Europe as part of our buy-and-build strategy. We want to become the European market leader, something that does not yet exist in the commercial retail sector for professional film and television equipment. This is a market worth billions for Avemio. In distribution, internationally positioned market participants are already making billions in sales.”
