Our strategy stands on three pillars that lead to the establishment of comprehensive supply chains and a diversified portfolio of companies.
The First Pillar of the strategy is to seek out and enter companies in need of restructuring and significant changes to their operation that also have a product or a service that is competitive and has potential for further development.
The Second Pillar involves building companies from the ground up in sectors we already know and know how to do business in.
The Third Pillar of the strategy is the acquisition of companies that may be functioning well, but have the potential for great growth or global reach by joining the group and utilising our synergies to their fullest.
Our values include diligence, logic, simplicity, ethics, cooperation and efficiency. We believe that good results only come with hard work.
Although we are growing into a large international investment group, we maximise the streamlining of our management and operational model to be dynamic and efficient.
We make sure that the people who have the greatest say in the company are those in direct contact with the customer.
Cooperation and synergies within teams and between our companies are the fundamental building blocks of the success of FWG Atlantiso.
Changing the world is not our primary aim. We want to do what we believe in and be the best at it. Changing the world for the better will come with this intention.
The FWG Atlantiso Group fulfils the vision of building a strong international group of companies whose business is primarily based on quality products and services, on the value of cooperation and responsibility, long-term sustainability and generating profit.
Companies within the FWG Atlantiso Group have their own identity and autonomy, especially in business and targeting their products and services. Moreover, we emphasise the utilisation of synergies within the Group, both in purchasing, IT, administration, finance, facilities and management, and in the use of the Group ecosystem.
FWG Atlantiso was founded in 2014 under the FWG brand. From 2014 to 2018, the Group primarily operated in the sector of interim management, strategic operation and executive company management, corporate restructuring, and provision of IT integrations and IT support. This period was extremely important for the Group, as we gained a lot of experience from various business sectors and situations during the life cycles of companies. The Group learned to do business and effectively manage companies across industries, assess risks and utilise business opportunities. In 2019, we started building our own portfolio of companies as a strategic investor.
The aim of FWG Atlantiso is to reach a value of 200 million EUR by 2026.
To acquire companies for our existing sectors so that we own the entire business chain from production to sales and delivery to the customer in each sector.
