Lemvigh-Müller expands presence in Denmark with acquisition of steel wholesaler Brdr. Kier
Lemvigh-Müller, Denmark’s leading wholesaler of steel and industrial products, has announced the acquisition of the operational activities and employees of the regional wholesaler Brdr. Kier, further strengthening its position in Central and Eastern Jutland.
Founded over a century ago, Brdr. Kier has built a strong reputation as a local supplier of steel, plumbing, and VA solutions to contractors, installers, and industrial customers across the region. Lemvigh-Müller aims to build on this local legacy by enhancing product expertise, customer advice, and service offerings.
“With this acquisition, we will strengthen the close cooperation with our customers and partners and continue to offer expert advice in both the Industry and Installation segments,” said Christian Søgaard-Christensen, CEO of Lemvigh-Müller. “We complement each other well, especially in technical capabilities and customer relationships, and I am confident that our combined strengths will enhance our competitiveness.”
Through the acquisition, Lemvigh-Müller also expands its physical footprint, gaining retail locations in Aarhus North and Skanderborg and a steel warehouse in Hasselager. Customers of Brdr. Kier will now benefit from access to Lemvigh-Müller’s extensive catalogue of over 550,000 product references and a densified distribution network throughout Denmark.
The transaction is currently subject to approval by competition authorities and is expected to be completed in the coming months.
