08.2021: Haspa Beteiligungsgesellschaft für den Mittelstand (Haspa BGM) takes a majority stake in HANSA Maschinenbau Vertriebs- und Fertigungs GmbH (HANSA) as part of a succession plan, thereby securing the continuity of the company in the spirit of long-term managing director Patrick Palsmeyer. He remains on board and will continue the successful growth course together with Haspa BGM. HANSA, which was founded over 70 years ago, was taken over by Norbert Palsmeyer and his son Patrick in 2013. They developed the handicraft business into a modern manufacturer of special vehicles with a technologically leading market position and a turnover of around 30 million euros. HANSA designs and manufactures multi-purpose equipment carriers in the “heavy duty” segment (e.g. for green space maintenance, leaf removal, street cleaning, winter service) and cemetery excavators. In both product groups, the company has a strong customer base, especially in the municipal sector.
