Bitburger Holding
Bitburger Holding GmbH is the family-equity holding of the Simon entrepreneurial family (owners of the Bitburger brewery group, founded 1817 by Johann Peter Wallenborn), established in 1998 in Bitburg to hold the family's non-brewery direct investments in successful German Mittelstand companies with a long-term, generational ownership horizon. Its portfolio spans majority and minority stakes across consumer goods (Gerolsteiner), tools and industrials (Wera), dental and healthcare technology (Duerr Dental, Schuelke) and recycling (Avista Oil), complemented by the Bitburger Ventures / Simon Capital venture-capital vehicle launched in 2018.
