Energy bills are rising rapidly and the environment impact of household power consumption has never been so apparent. Homeowners are looking for a way to reduce costs and emissions, but finding reliable and expert advice can be difficult. Aroundhome exists to solve this problem - by matching homeowners with local companies who can assist with anything home-related, from kitchen design to solar panels installation.
Aroundhome is a well-known name in this field. Founded in 2008, it has grown to become the largest online broker for household products and services in Germany. It has carved out this position by its responsiveness - homeowners searching on its platform are directed to providers who have staff available to discuss the project on live chat. While large local competitors exist such as MyHammer which links tradespeople to customers, Aroundhome's more comprehensive approach which includes products and other household services sets it apart.
The company was acquired by NuCom group in 2019, which is part of ProSiebenSat.1, a German mass media company. This will allow Aroundhome to take advantage of the group's advertising reach and cross-promote with other large companies within the group. It is well-positioned to take advantage of the growing market of people who are working from home, and have its sights set on becoming the largest home services provider worldwide.
