We are Kerten

Kerten is a leading investment firm that focuses on creating value and profitable growth through successful transformations of mid-sized and start-up enterprises, with a strong emphasis on sustainability and ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) factors. We believe that investing in sustainable businesses is not only essential for the betterment of the planet but also creates long-term value for all stakeholders. Our expertise spans various sectors, including Agriculture, Numerous Business Services, Construction, Energy, Finance, FMCG, Hospitality, Manufacturing, Real Estate and Technology, with a proven track record of driving market-leading outcomes across Europe, Middle East, Africa and other countries.

Our unique approach is led by a Swiss-based Irish entrepreneur who founded Kerten with the vision of creating a truly sustainable and responsible investment firm. We have no third-party capital, which affords us the independence to align fully with our stakeholders’ needs and respond to them effectively. This approach enables us to deliver optimal value and profitable growth, while also contributing to a more sustainable future.

Leading Transformation

At Kerten, we believe in the power of entrepreneurial spirit and the potential for start-ups to achieve global recognition. Our approach is to partner with these emerging businesses and or business leaders, combining our expertise with their vision to unlock value and drive growth. We bring a unique blend of traditional investment tools, such as efficient capital management and corporate restructuring, with a forward-thinking mindset that emphasises sustainability and impact. Our comprehensive 360-degree strategy involves working closely with business leadership teams and co-owners to maximise profitability, optimise cash flow, and implement sustainable operational efficiencies. Through our unwavering commitment to innovation, diligence, and persistence, we aim to help start-ups reach their full potential and become globally recognised leaders in their industries.

However, our mission goes beyond transforming individual businesses. We strive to revitalise and reshape the sectors in which they operate by embracing a forward-thinking approach that anticipates and responds to new trends and markets. By overcoming the obstacles posed by rigid and outdated industry practices, we aim to create a better living for all.
