Our take

Berlin Brands Group (BBG) is a leading player in the competitive realm of eCommerce business aggregation, positioning itself alongside industry giants such as Thrasio, Heroes, and Razor Group. As the market continues to expand rapidly, BBG strives to establish itself as the modern-day equivalent of Unilever.

The company distinguishes itself through its history of successfully scaling eCommerce brands, setting it apart from other aggregators who primarily focus on operational improvements for Amazon businesses. BBG takes a different approach by prioritising fundamental design and production enhancements, alongside leveraging its expansive network of over 100 consumer channels. To match the operational improvements provided by its competitors, BBG aims to build its logistics and fulfilment infrastructure, as well as its tech platform, further enhancing its capabilities in the market.

It will be interesting to witness whether the company can maintain steady growth, transitioning from 14 well-regarded consumer brands to an M&A powerhouse, but also retain its competitive edge in design and production. The ability to strike a balance between rapid expansion and maintaining the core strengths that set the company apart will ultimately determine its ability to thrive in this evolving landscape.
