The Rieckermann Group is pleased to announce that they are pursuing a strategic investment in BDI-BioEnergy International (BDI). JR New Horizons, Rieckermann’s strategic investment arm, has secured equal shares in the company alongside with EOSS and Kanzler Verfahrenstechnik (KVT), a long-term trusted business partner of Rieckermann.
“The joint ownership provides an optimal foundation for BDI’s future development”, states Tim Buttscher, COO of JR New Horizons. “Our individual strengths align, and we are united in our commitment and vision of a circular economy and decarbonization through green production,” adds Flynn Seidel, Director Strategic Business Development of the Rieckerman Group.
The entire Rieckermann team is excited about BDI joining forces.
