Schoeller Group

Schoeller Group

Martin Schoeller and Christoph Schoeller lead the family office that emerged from the Schoeller industrial holdings in Munich and Zurich. The office traces its lineage to 18th-century textile and packaging firms in Düren and Jülich. It operates as one segment within a ringfenced group structure that keeps operating companies independent. The office allocates across real estate, private equity, venture capital and liquid markets. It executes direct co-investments and SPVs alongside infrastructure and philanthropic commitments. Confirmed holdings include a 2,500-apartment residential portfolio acquired in 2019 and the Erlanger Höfe mixed-use development exceeding 30,000 sqm and €150m. Footprint spans Europe with additional exposure in North America, Asia and Africa. Joint ventures include Brookfield Business Partners in Schoeller Allibert. The family office sits within a group employing roughly 4,000 people worldwide. Martin Schoeller serves as Chairman of Die Familienunternehmer for Bavaria and co-founded the Munich Europe Conference. A November 2024 firm update detailed the GESI energy-storage project. Adjacent vehicles include the Africa First Network and Desert Food Foundation. The office maintains separation from the four holding companies that own stakes in packaging, logistics and beverage-capsule businesses. This architecture allows independent capital deployment while drawing on operational cash flows from returnable-transport packaging and supply-chain services.
