The takeover of Hema by the entrepreneur Marcel Boekhoorn does not raise any objections from the ACM regulator. The Dutch Consumer and Market Authority finds that the sale does not create competition
Boekhoorn's investment firm Ramphastos Investments takes over the chain of Lion Capital department stores, which was looking for a buyer since some time. The price of acquisition has not yet been officially released.
Boekhoorn wants to reduce the burden of HEMA debt in the short term. "This burden of lead is an obstacle to growth and prevents the optimal use of the power of the very powerful HEMA," said the entrepreneur at a conference in October.
A first step has already been taken with the takeover. For example, 100 million euros of loans were repaid and 40 million euros were put in equity.
Boekhoorn does not have any other large chain stores via Ramphastos. Previously, he was a lender of the McGregor fashion chain, but it was not a success. In the past, he earned a lot of money, among others, with Bakker Bart and telecommunications provider Telfort.
