    ADVANT Beiten Advises on Merger of Schwörer und Offenburger into FREMA

    Press Releases

    Freiburg, 17 September 2025 - The international law firm ADVANT Beiten has provided comprehensive legal advice to the shareholders of Schwörer und Offenburger GmbH & Co. KG with its registered office in Lahr, Germany, as well as of FREMA GmbH & Co. KG with its registered office in Herbolzheim, Germany, on the merger of both companies into FREMA GmbH & Co. KG. As part of the merger, FREMA GmbH & Co. KG was renamed ZABYX GmbH & Co. KG.

    As early as in June 2024, ADVANT Beiten has provided comprehensive legal advice to the two shareholders Stefan Brückner and Andreas Ebner on successfully completing the two transactions in their home region South Baden. As part of a succession plan, the entrepreneur duo was able to take over the two companies FREMA and Schwörer und Offenburger. By merging the two companies, the two shareholders would like to use synergies and standardise processes to position themselves for the future. The trademarks FREMA and Schwörer und Offenburger continue to exist as protected trademarks under the newly renamed ZABYX GmbH & Co. KG.

    The two now merged companies have been operating in the area of mechanical engineering, special machine construction, plant construction and toolmaking for several decades. The two trademarks continue to complement each other ideally in terms of process technologies, the resources at two independently operating production plants, but also in the necessary experience to meet customer requirements in a targeted manner. ZABYX stands for more than 60 years of experience, reliability and origin.

    Advisors to Shareholders:
    ADVANT Beiten: Dr Barbara Mayer (Lead Partner) and Dr Christian Osbahr (both Corporate/M&A, Freiburg).

    Notary: Dr Johannes Weber, Freiburg
