Joint vision for a sustainable future – Soil & More Impacts taken over by sustainable AG and denkstatt Group

The consultancy team of Soil & More was fully integrated into sustainable AG with the completed company takeover on 24.03.2022 with the plan to further expand in the future. The denkstatt Group has thus gained 14 additional experts who will contribute their knowledge in areas such as climate strategy, sustainability accounting, sustainable agriculture, materiality analysis, LCA and CO2 footprinting.

Growth in Germany and strengthening of position in core markets

Our joint focus will be on growth and new advisory services for the food and agricultural sector – and thus also for renewable raw materials. The aim is to bundle competences and to integrate Soil & More into the denkstatt Group in the best possible way in order to be able to use synergies and to create sustainable added value in the long term. Managing directors Tobias Bandel (Soil & More Impacts) and Jan-Marten Krebs (sustainable AG) spoke of an “important milestone for the further development of the group” at the time of the takeover. “The portfolio of Soil & More fits perfectly into the portfolio of sustainable AG and into that of the entire denkstatt Group. The merger therefore strengthens our position in Germany on the one hand and beyond that in all our core markets.”

The growth enables us to act even more efficiently in the global and dynamic market and to support and to accompany international companies in the best possible way on their journey into a sustainable future.

“We are pleased about the colleagues we have gained and their competences for the entire group and about being able to offer an extended service portfolio,” reports Jan-Marten Krebs.
