Ownership structure and local management

Conaxess Trade is owned by German investment group, Aurelius. The Conaxess Trade Group was acquired from Valora Trade by Aurelius on January 1, 2016. Aurelius is one of the leading European investment groups, acquiring participations with development potential. Having Aurelius as official owner, we have the benefit of constantly developing our potential as part of the group’s long-term strategy.

Uwe Thellmann from Aurelius is the Chairman of the Board of Conaxess Trade Group. Our seven local companies in six countries each have a local Managing Director or Board of Directors. This ensures a local commitment and international perspective which is required by our stakeholders.
