The Ferdinand Gross Group is a fastener distributor that employs around 260 people and also operates in Hungary and Poland.

In combination with Bossard Germany, a distributor of customised fastening technologies, Bossard will be able to serve its customers in Germany and Eastern Europe more comprehensively.

“I eagerly look forward to the upcoming collaboration with our new colleagues. The planned acquisition of the Ferdinand Gross Group not only brings together two companies with a long tradition, but also two strong partners who share common values and business philosophies – in the spirit of “Proven Productivity”,” said Daniel Bossard, CEO of the Bossard Group.

“Bossard is the ideal partner for the Ferdinand Gross Group and our employees to forge a joint path into the future. The strengths of both companies will form the basis for accelerating our growth and expanding our range of products and services, while ensuring that our customers continue to receive first-class service,” said Gerald Hering, managing director, who leads the company in the fifth generation.

The closing of the transaction is expected in the first quarter of 2025.
